54BC. As tensions build in Gaul and the druids
manoeuvre the tribes towards general rebellion, Priscus and the
diminishing senior staff of Caesar's army prepare to return to
Britannia, this time with a vast army and a will to crush the tribes of that mysterious island.
Meanwhile in Rome and with his ties to the general severed, Fronto
contemplates a non-military future as he settles into the life of a
married nobleman, socialising with Rome's elite and coming to terms with
the decline in his fitness in recent months. In this year of
rising troubles, Priscus will miss his former commander's presence more
than ever, while Fronto will learn more than he wishes to of the great
Pompey. With rebellious Gauls, defiant Britons, vengeful giants, veteran
gladiators and dangerous criminals, Fronto is pushed to the limits,
driving him to a decision he dreads and a battle for his very life at
the steaming, hellish land of Hades' Gate. Views: 23
