EMPIRE 1: WOUNDS OF HONOR PB B FORMAT – ANTHONY RICHES

A master of the genre The Times Marcus Valerius Aquila has scarcely landed in Britannia when he has to run for his life – condemned to dishonorable death by power-crazed emperor Commodus. The plan is to take a new name, serve in an obscure regiment on Hadrian s Wall and lie low until he can hope for justice. Then a rebel army sweeps down from the wastes north of the Wall, and Marcus has to prove he s hard enough to lead a century in the front line of a brutal, violent war.
