Özet
 THE GLADIATOR is the compelling ninth novel in Simon Scarrow's bestselling Eagles of the Empire series. A must read for fans of Bernard Cornwell.

While centurions Macro and Cato are returning to Rome from a harrowing campaign against the Parthians, their transport ship is almost capsized by a tidal wave. They barely make it to the port of Matala in Crete where they are stunned to find a devastated town. An earthquake has struck the island, destroying its cities and killing thousands. In the chaotic aftermath, large bands of the island's slaves begin to revolt and local bandits, taking advantage of the slave rebellion, urge the Cretans to overthrow the Roman administration. With many of the island's troops either killed or wounded during the earthquake, the governor of the province calls on Macro and Cato for help. Can they move swiftly enough to counter the rebellion before it sweeps the Romans from the island?

Praise for Simon Scarrow: 'I really don't need this kind of competition... It's a great read' (Bernard Cornwell)
A new book in Simon Scarrow's series about the Roman army is always a joy
Gripping... ferocious and compelling, it is a story of blood, romance and sacrifice
Rollicking good fun
A satisfyingly bloodthirsty, bawdy romp...perfect for Bernard Cornwell addicts who will relish its historical detail and fast-paced action. Storming stuff
Gripping
Scarrow's [novels] rank with the best

Another gripping storyline with twists and turns in a well constructed plot. Cato's rise to prominence is a feature of this book, Julia provides the love interest with a door into Roman high society.

Interesting Storyline holds your attention.

This is perhaps the best story in the series so far, i have not been disappointed in any of the books thus far but this one is definitely one of the best.

Best yet?

An exciting romp through Roman Crete in the aftermath of a leveling earthquake. Slightly predictable however those parts are quite enjoyable. The narrative from the villain (the gladiator) is a bit incoherent; does he want freedom or vengeance? also hated the way the narrator pronounced the gladiator's name...Good listen though, would recommend.

Macro and Cato back on form!
