Eagles of the Empire, Book 3

De: Simon Scarrow

Narrado por: David Thorpe

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....

Excellent

An excellent work. A novel with historical accuracy; as far as Roman adventures go.i just finished the book and I’m about to start it again.

Easy listen

Loved it. Great story. Will probably finish all the books. Great escape from everyday life.

Great narration, great book.

I wasn't so keen on the author when i started the series of books but he's grown on my and class him as one of my favourite narrators. I was sad to find he's not doing the subsequent books, so I doubt I will continue the series on Audible. The story itself is great though, so maybe i'll just buy the hardcopy.

Excellent!

this series just keeps getting better! the narrator has done a fantastic job and the story is always captivating. the danger and stakes feel real and I'm honestly impressed by the all the characters
