About this copy
An audacious mission deep behind enemy lines. A disgraced legion desperate for redemption. Centurion Marcus Tribulus Corvus (known to his comrades as Valerius Aquila) and the battle-hardened men of the Tungrian cohort are ordered back to the brutal, frozen landscape of northern Britain. Rebellion is brewing at the absolute highest levels of the empire, and the standard Roman legions have been given strict, unyielding command to hold their ground at the frontier walls. But total inaction is not an option. To strike a decisive blow against the native tribes, the Tungrians are dispatched on an incredibly daring raid far north of Hadrian’s Wall, deep into the hostile territory of the Venicones. Their mission is as dangerous as it is vital: they must locate and recover the revered Eagle of the Sixth Legion, a legendary prize captured by the barbarians. Without their sacred standard, the Sixth Legion faces total disgrace and forced disbandment. Marcus and his men must survive brutal terrain, shifting tribal alliances, and graphic, relentless combat to bring the Eagle home. If they fail, Rome's grip on the north will shatter forever. Bloody, action-packed, and intensely atmospheric—a masterpiece of Roman military fiction perfect for readers of Simon Scarrow and Ben Kane.
