The Eagle and the Wolves - Simon Scarrow
by samueltyler - written on 11/08/09 (Very useful, 43 readings)
Rating:
Scarrow, Conn Iggulden and Bernard Cornwell because they are historically accurate, but also fun to read. It is clear by The Eagle and the Wolves that Scarrow deserves to be in this rich company because he has learned from their mistakes and made a series his own from beginning to end. This is book 4 is a series were I feel the overall stroy arc has been mapped out from day 1. By pre planning Scarrow is able to make sure that a filler novel like this does not feel lazy or complacent. The various pitched battles alone, that are all fresh in their own way, are enough for me to recommend this book. Author: Simon Scarrow Year: 2003 Price: amazon uk - £5.99 ...

Centurion (Roman Legion 8) - Simon Scarrow

I have read all 8 of Simon Scarrows Roman Legion books and i would say this is definetly within the top 3! Since the first book we have come to love the now Centurion Cato and Macro on their struggle through Gaul, Britain and Syria. They though they had come through the toughest battles they were ever likely to be faced with, how wrong were they. Personally i enjoyed the first two books the most, its where we got to learn about Cato and Macro s personalities and backgrounds, now however we see that Cato is no longer the scared inexperienced boy he used to be, in many ways he is older than his veteran friend Macro. Macro is soldier through and through, simply see s a ...

Under the Eagle - Simon Scarrow

Rating:
first adventure lacked depth? Maybe Ruth Rendell took a while to get to grips with Wexford. So with this is in mind will the two Roman heroes in Simon Scarrow s ‘Eagle’ novels be instant hits, or long time friends? Cato and Marco could not be too different legionnaires. Marco has become a Centurion by years of battles and experience whilst Cato has become his second in command via politics and at a young age. Although they may be complete opposites they must combine their experience and intelligence to lead their men in battle. This is made even more important when they discover themselves involved in a political struggle for power and a long march to the barbaric ...
