About this listen

If you don't know Simon Scarrow, you don't know Rome!

When the Eagle Hunts is the compelling third novel in Simon Scarrow's best-selling Eagles of the Empire series. For fans of Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden.

Britannia, AD 44. Cato, a thoughtful junior officer in the Roman army, and his commanding centurion, Macro, are simply pawns in Rome's lust to conquer Britain. During the freezing winter, the two men and their legion fight the native savages in hand-to-hand battles that haunt Cato for days after. But in a place full of enemies, the most vicious are the Druids of the Dark Moon; brutal, merciless men who have captured the wife and children of General Plautius himself. So Macro and Cato are given a mission: to travel deep into enemy territory and recover the hostages. If they fail, the fate of the Roman army may just hang in the balance....

Any additional comments?

I wish the next 2 books could also be made into audio books as this book and the previous 2 have done, they are excellent and would be first on my list to download if they were available, reading through them at present but regardless would deeply still want to listen to an audiobook version. Please make more !!

Great Book, Why stop recording here?

Nice bit of escapism with a Romans on Britain slant. Well written and narrated. I could listen to these all day. Wait a sec that's just what o did today.

Enjoyable
