" TERRIBLE WORST BOOK I'VE EVER READ "

" It was a little confusing to follow because in the beginning Beric was having a good time and then he got on a ship and fell unconscious. After that it jumps way ahead with him as a slave. It was still good. "

" This was not one of my favorites but still very good. I thought the character development was very good. "

" Not the best Sutcliff, in my opinion. The storyline wasn't as strong as some of the others, though the commentary on Roman slavery was quite strong. "

" I did not enjoy this book very much. There was a lot of hardships. It was very sad. "

" Trying to read my way through Rosemary Sutcliff's entire catalog. This one didn't hurt as bad as The Mark of the Horse Lord, or Song for a Dark Queen, but I don't think it was meant to. Much more uplifting even though the entire book details hard times in Beric's life. "

" Read from 8-9 March 2005. Although not as good as Eagle of the Ninth, it didn't have to be, I was hooked! Rosemary Sutcliff writes great historical fiction. Can't think of a better way to get kids to learn history! "

" One of the worst books I have ever read....... I would not read another Rosemary Sutcliff book. "

" One of my favorite children's authors. She was an expert on Roman Britain. History come alive. "

" I don't have the words to do this book justice. It is a truly incredible story and I am now a fan for life of Rosemary Sutcliff. "

" I read this years ago & though the overall story was a good one, it was boring & tedious for me. Maybe it was just me at the time, though. "

" Even better than I remembered it. The harrowing situation of the slave-galley and Beric's confused desparation afterwards are particularly strong stuff for a children's book. "

" Another of Sutcliffe's fine looks at life in Roman Britain. I have used an abridged version of this book with junior high English classes. While they couldn't have handled the full-length version, the abridgement entralled them. "
