MEET MARCUS VALERIUS, THE LEGENDARY HERO.

'A master of the genre' The Times

Marcus Valerius Aquila has scarcely landed in Britannia when he has to run for his life - condemned to dishonourable death by power-crazed emperor Commodus.

The plan is to take a new name, serve in an obscure regiment on Hadrian's Wall and lie low until he can hope for justice.

Then a rebel army sweeps down from the wastes north of the Wall, and Marcus has to prove he's hard enough to lead a century in the front line of a brutal, violent war.

Thrilling, authentic and action-packed, Wounds of Honour launched the incredible EMPIRE series, and catapulted Anthony Riches to the very top of the historical adventure genre. ©2009 Anthony Riches Ancient Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Historical Fiction Military Thriller & Suspense War & Military Exciting War

I read these when they were first published and couldn't put any of them down. I got them to listen to while commuting to work and thoroughly love listening to them just as much. Brilliant narration, fantastic story's, the perfect combination. Thank you Anthony Riches and thank you Audible.
