About this listen

The Tungrian auxiliary cohorts return to Hadrian's Wall after their successful Dacian campaign, only to find Britannia in chaos. The legions are overstretched, struggling to man the forts of the northern frontier in the face of increasing barbarian resistance. The Tungrians are the only soldiers who can be sent into the northern wastes, far beyond the long-abandoned wall built by Antoninus, where a lost symbol of imperial power of the Sixth Victorious Legion is reputed to await them.

Protected by an impassable swamp and hidden in a fortress atop a high mountain, the eagle of the Sixth legion must be recovered if the legion is to survive.

Marcus and his men must penetrate the heart of the enemy's strength, ghosting through a deadly wilderness patrolled by vicious huntresses before breaching the walls of the Fang, an all-but-impregnable fort, if they are to rescue the legion's venerated standard. If successful their escape will be twice as perilous, with the might of a barbarian tribe at their heels.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

definitely recommend it, the whole series in fact, the books flow into each other seamlessly.

What other book might you compare The Eagle's Vengeance to, and why?

I started this series after I had exhausted the Conn Iggulden roman and Genghis Khan series (also recommended)

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

The narration was good, and each character had their own voice although the women were pretty poor.

Any additional comments?

The only bad thing about this series is I am getting fed up with the word HEFT/HEFTED and Nocked (?) they are repeated used throughout the series and are starting to jar!

really good series of books
