Historia
The first novel in Simon Scarrow's bestselling Roman series. It is 42 AD, and Quintus Licinius Cato has just arrived in Germany as a new recruit to the Second Legion, the toughest in the Roman army. If adjusting to the rigours of military life isn't difficult enough for the bookish young man, he also has to contend with the disgust of his colleagues when, because of his imperial connections, he is appointed a rank above them.

Historia
The Romans invaded Britannia in AD 43 confident of victory. They swept through a divided and ill-equipped enemy, scattered across tough terrain. But one man was not prepared to surrender. Caratacus - quick-witted youngest son of a a tribal king - had been trained from birth to be a warrior of power and grit. Sent to be schooled by the Druids in his boyhood, his training meant that an already strong and cunning prince returned to his father's kingdom as a war machine.

25 BC. Titus Cervianus is no ordinary soldier. A former surgeon from the city of Ancyra, he's now a capsarius—a combat medic. Cervianus is a pragmatist, a scientist and truly unpopular with his legion. The Twenty Second Deiotariana have been sent to deal with uprisings and chaos in Egypt. Yet the Twenty Second is no ordinary legion either. Founded as the private royal army of one of Rome's most devoted allies, the king of Galatia, their ways are not the same as the other legions, a factor that sets them apart and causes friction with their fellow soldiers.

Good book, but a mediocre point in the series
I write this based on listening to the Abridged version, since there is not unabridged version. But you definitely blow past it pretty quick. The voice acting was acceptable, but not amazing. Previous audio books had superior voice acting with better attention to accents and more imagination.
Altogether, a decent read. But not something I'll listen to again unless blowing through the whole series.

Great story
Listen to all the other audible books on the series the voice of the Macro and Cato didn't go well with them but I love this series and will read or listen to the rest. Scarrow is the best historical fiction author I have read. This was my least favorite of the series so far but I still loved it.

Avoid - this is abridged
I didn't know this was abridged but i should have noticed due to the running time. Not a well abridged book, i felt like I missed a lot. I love Steven Pacey but Jonathan Keebler is the better fit for this series.

Abridged version
Same price as the other unabridged versions. Why do you need to seek a 4 hour book, just put the whole book on audio or don't bother. WILL NOT buy another one- I'd rather quit the series in the middle then listen to basically a commercial.

unabridged version doesn't make sense.
I love this series and hate that the 2nd book was not on audible and now this one just makes the series and audible look bad. As someone who owns all of this series at the moment barring the most recent one thus the relisten this is a dark point. Audible please do better.

Weakest book in the series
Last time I heard narration this bad I was listening to R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones series. I hope this was an abridged version of the book cause if not I'm very disappointed in Scarrow with this title. Everything was rushed. There was little or no time to build anything up. Easily the weakest book in the series thus far.
