About this listen

It is 58 BC, and the mighty Tenth Legion, camped in Northern Italy, prepare for the arrival of the most notorious general in Roman history: Julius Caesar. Marcus Falerius Fronto, commander of the Tenth, is a career soldier and longtime companion of Caesar's. 

Despite his desire for the simplicity of the military life, he cannot help but be drawn into intrigue and politics as Caesar engineers a motive to invade the lands of Gaul. Fronto is about to discover that politics can be as dangerous as battle, that old enemies can be trusted more than new friends, and that standing close to such a shining figure as Caesar, even the most ethical of men risk being burned.

Loved the narration of the characters, the story was cleverly put together and the battles were written so clearly and illustrate a great picture as you listen/read

If like me you love Simon Scarrow, Bernard Cornwell, Matthew Harffy, Anthony Riches, Robert Fabbri and Ben Kane, buy this, you will not be dissapointed! A thoroughly enjoyable listen and a great take on Julius Caesar and the intrigues of Roman life. So far only up to book 4 is available on Audible, hopefully that will soon change because I have loved all 4 thus far!

At Last!! Something else worth listening to!

The more I listen to this series (just finished book 4) the more I am enjoying it. It just gets more interesting and better the further in you get. The series is a bit of a slow burner to start with when compared to Simon Scarrow's books but it is well worth sticking with as by the end of book 4 I am hooked! In my opinion they are just as good as Scarrow's books.

Loving the series so far!
