Publisher Description

The brand new thrilling Roman adventure from the bestselling author of THE LEGION and THE GLADIATOR. The city of Rome in AD 50 is a dangerous place. Treachery lurks on every corner, and a shadowy Republican movement, 'the Liberators', has spread its tentacles wide. It is feared that the heart of the latest plot lies in the ranks of the Praetorian Guard. Uncertain of whom he can trust, the Imperial Secretary Narcissus summons to Rome two courageous men guaranteed to be loyal to the grave: army veterans Prefect Cato and Centurion Macro.Tasked with infiltrating the Guard, Cato and Macro face a daunting test to win the trust of their fellow soldiers.

No sooner have they begun to unearth the details of the Liberators' devious plan than disaster strikes: an old enemy who could identify them, with deadly consequences, makes an unexpected appearance. Now they face a race against time to save their own lives before they can unmask the mastermind behind the Liberators...

"Another brilliant instalment and I thoroughly enjoyed every page (screen really as I read it on my kindle and phone). A different setting to the other books but there is still the recurring theme in that they end up to their necks in sewage at some point. Can't wait for the next book."

    " Different from their normal adventures as its set in Rome itself and they are under cover in the Praetorian guard. They must uncover many secrets to keep the emperor Claudius (and themselves) alive. Gives a great impression of the harshness of life in Rome. "

    " A pretty good entry in this series. This is the first time Scarrow continued a story line from a previous novel. Maybe not as fresh as his earlier work. "

    " Maybe a little less drawn out battle scenes but I do appreciate that is a huge part of the appeal for others. If anyone else is interested reading books from historians writing about the Roman military machine (pax romana hah!) I recommend Adrian Goldsworthy. "

    " A real return to form for this excellent series from Simon Scarrow. The story lines in recent books were beginning to tend towards being slightly repetitive, but the change in setting has produced a very enjoyable book indeed. Roll on book #12! "

    " This was a bit of a departure from Scarrow's usual writing since it revolved around Roman politics and the role of the Praetorian guard. Overall I enjoyed reading this book. Although, the series does seem to be dragging out a little. "
