Legionary

By Gordon Doherty

Book Overview

In the legions of Rome, an orphan will find 1,000 brothers. One by one, war will take them away.

376 AD: The Goths amass at the edges of the Eastern Roman Empire, armed and with madness in their eyes. Emperor Valens frantically mobilises his legions to contain this unexpected tide. Little does he know of the far greater, darker threat that drove the tribes like this: the Huns.

The legions need every new recruit they can find, anyone to hold a spear. Pavo - slave and orphan - is not just anyone. Thrust into the border legions, cast into the front line, he must become a man, or he will die, and the empire will fall with him.

For fans of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden, Simon Scarrow, David Gemmell and Ben Kane - an epic Roman adventure brimming with battles, blood and gore.
