FROM THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WAR LORD COMES AN EPIC RETELLING OF THE ARTHURIAN LEGEND
In the Dark Ages, a legendary warrior arises to unite a divided land . . .
_________
Uther, the High King of Britain, is dead.
His only heir is the infant Mordred. Yet each of the country's lesser kings seek to claim the crown for themselves.
While they squabble and spoil for war, a host of Saxon armies gather, preparing for invasion.
But no one has counted on the fearsome warlord Arthur.
Handed power by Merlin and pursuing a doomed romance with the beautiful Guinevere, Arthur knows he will struggle to unite the country – let alone hold back the Saxon enemy at the gates.
Yet destiny awaits him . . .
From the epic and bestselling author who has gripped millions.
_________

The first novel in Simon Scarrow's bestselling Roman series. It is 42 AD, and Quintus Licinius Cato has just arrived in Germany as a new recruit to the Second Legion, the toughest in the Roman army. If adjusting to the rigours of military life isn't difficult enough for the bookish young man, he also has to contend with the disgust of his colleagues when, because of his imperial connections, he is appointed a rank above them.

Thrilling, authentic, and action packed, this novel introduces soldier hero Marcus Valerius: a centurion stationed on Hadrian's Wall in the second century during a revolt against the Roman Empire. Marcus Valerius Aquila has scarcely landed in Britannia when he has to run for his life - condemned to dishonorable 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.

Pretty brutal depiction of post roman Britain.
Grew on me after getting through initial strangeness but once the world is built, immensely enjoyable and kept me busy on Wikipedia. Apart from long winded exposition, very interesting and a brutal affair.

Not perfect but pretty damn close.
I've owned this on both paper and audiobook and the both are great. The voice actor did a good job on this one. some of the characters aren't how I imagined them but it's not really a problem. 5/5 from me.

Good 1st book. I will continue the Series
The writing was top notch. Very fluid and eloquent at times. The character work was decent but not deep enough for me to be invested in a lot of the side characters. The story was intriguing and definitely has left me wanting to come back for about two. The narration was spectacular. Top-notch

A Master Piece
Cornwell is the best writer ever. I had read this trilogy before a decade ago. Since then I became a fan. Have read more than 25 books written by BC and the more I read other writers, the more I miss his books. If you have never read any of Cornwell’s books, this one is perfect start.

Incredible narration
This is the best narration I have ever heard in an audiobook! Truly brings the story alive and with just the right intonations and spirit. I’ll be looking for other books narrated by Johnathon Keeble!

It's one of the greatest fantasy trilogies I've read. It's also one of the best audiobook profomanaces I've come across. This is a must-read.

Excellent!
Bernard Cornwell is one of my all-time favourite historical fiction authors, and Jonathan Keeble (who also reads the first four books of The Last Kingdom series) interprets this story superbly, capturing the gruffness, brutality and passion of post-Roman Britain. I will definitely listen to this again in the future, and anything by Cornwell with Keeble reading is top of my post for future listens!
