From bestselling historian Adrian Goldsworthy, a profoundly authentic, action-packed adventure set on Rome's Danubian frontier.

AD 105: DACIA. The Dacian kingdom and Rome are at peace, but no one thinks that it will last. Sent to command an isolated fort beyond the Danube, centurion Flavius Ferox can sense that war is coming, but also knows that enemies may be closer to home. Many of the Brigantes under his command are former rebels and convicts, as likely to kill him as obey an order. And then there is Hadrian, the emperor's cousin, and a man with plans of his own.

Gritty, gripping and profoundly authentic, The Fort is the first book in a brand new trilogy set in the Roman empire from bestselling historian Adrian Goldsworthy.

Reviews for the Vindolanda Trilogy:

'No one knows the Roman army better than Adrian Goldsworthy, and no one writes more convincing Roman fiction' Harry Sidebottom

'Gritty and realistic ... Goldsworthy’s characters are authentically ancient and his descriptions of Roman Briton ring true' Daily Telegraph (Sydney)

The narrators constant mispronounciation really ruined this book for me, as well as his lack of emphasis on certain phrases. What a shame as I've enjoyed the others.

The dreadful narration

Loved the story. Loved the Narrator.

However, I am sick of Audible using different Narrators for for continuations of a series. I respect this technically is separate from Adrian's previous trilogy but it's the same characters.

This is an on going issue with many series and sadly using a different narrator completely changes the characters. VERY ANNOYING

Audible disappoints once again

The first in a new series following on from the three part Vindolanda, and continuing the army exploits of Flavius Ferox, now posted to an isolated fort in Dacia, 105 AD. War is brooding, trouble continuing to follow Ferox wherever he goes. A word to the wise: don't join up to his cohort if you want a peaceful life. Good characters, vividly visual and atmospheric descriptions of the military daily life both in and out of battles, thrills, an hint of romance, humour and a blend of well researched fact and fiction.
Narration is by Stephen Peering who voices the large assortment of protagonists with disparate tones and inflections, keeping them individually distinctive. His reading is clear and we'll modulated and he keeps a fast pace througout. There are a few odd pronunciations occasionally as well as audible intakes of breath at times towards the end of sentences but overall his performance is sound, inclusive and further enhances the story.

The author is a fine historian and his story is punctuated with fascinating details, perfect for lovers of stories set in the times of Ancient Rome.
Definitely recommended.
