Reviews
Praise for Simon Scarrow's novels
A fast-moving and exceptionally well-paced historical thriller
A rip-roaring read
Gripping, with an electric atmosphere and cracking pace
Plunges the reader as convincingly as ever into the violence and tribalism of Roman Britain
Scarrow weaves his heroes into real events with a deft hand. His Nero is terrifying and capricious
Exciting . . . even a non-fan of the genre will be enthralled. Decadent emperors, marching cohorts, grain ships, the Forum, the Circus, togas, brothels, gladiators, senators' intrigues, persecutions, the plebian mob - everything that is ancient Rome comes to life
