T is the year A.D. 42, and Centurion Macro, battle-scarred and fearless, is in the heart of Germany with the Second Legion, the toughest in the Roman army. Cato, a new recruit and the newly appointed second-in-command to Macro, will have more to prove than most. In a bloody skirmish with local trives, Cato gets his first chance to prove that he's more than a callow, privileged youth. As their next campaign takes them to a land of unparalleled barbarity--Britain--a special mission unfolds, thrusting Cato and Macro headlong in to a conspiracy that threatens to topple the Emperor himself.
