I enjoyed this quite a bit. A little more complexity to Marco and Cato and their relationship with each other, the local Brits and the Legion. Put the next on order. Slowly getting through them!

A worthy 4th run.

Não é um livro mau, mas não é claramente o meu tipo de livro.
Entre descrições de batalhas atrás de batalhas há pouco espaço para alguma história, mas a ligação entre centurião e soldado é algo que, no final, vem ao de cima.
Mesmo assim, não é bem o tipo de livro que me mantém a atenção, razão pela qual tive que fazer um esforço para conseguir acabar de o ler.

Good, but not the best in the series so far. The battle sequences (of which there are MANY) get repetitive and Macro and Cato's uncanny ability to survive repeatedly hopeless odds starts to wear a bit thin. However, the imagery is vibrant, the larger historical plot remains intact and thick and there are some real points of dramatic tension in places. As a result the pages turn quickly. On to book #5

I much preferred this book to the previous, it feels like the series has found its rhythm again in this one.
