Fascinating read

Andre has strayed from her usual space epics and this is a thoroughly enjoyable read. I was unable to put it down and went from cover to cover in a little over three hours.The story is very authentic and adheres to the known history of the roman legions. I felt as though I was another of the warriors in the battles and the camps. I have almost every book that Andre has written and this one was another of her best.
