About this listen

With the passes to Ópalo forced open again, Prefect Marcus Venandus hoped to gain a respite to build his army for the war he knows is coming in the spring. Unfortunately, his enemies understand all too well the threat he poses to them, and they are taking steps to kill him before he reaches next year’s battlefields.

Assassins, both mundane and magical, step out of the shadows to strike at him, while other conspirators take advantage of the intense divisions within the city to spark riots to bring the government down.

Unable to differentiate between friend and foe, will Marcus and his few trusted comrades be able to win the Battle for Amatista?

Wow! Just wow!

Book four in this series is just top notch and by far the best so far. Wondering what Marcus will get up to in the next books!

Charge!

I am completely enjoying this series! I was gifted this book in exchange for my humble opinion and I have to say everyone should read this series! This series is actually not along my usual lines of books but I am very glad I took the chance. The combination of fantasy and realism works very well. Marcus is awesome! and really brought to life by William Hahn who does a terrific job of sounding like a Roman soldier. William brings a great deal of excitement to the story although we could do without the extra sound effects :) But this is book is definitely rated R and is for those who like adult themes and adult language which I do. These books would really make a great made for TV mini series.

They like him! Waa!

I have enjoyed several of Gilbert Stack’s Legionnaire volumes and this one is no different. With the successful opening of the mountain passes to Ópalo for trade under his belt, we find Prefect Marcus Venandus in a parade in Amatista celebrating his victory. Marcus is tasked with quelling the tension between the three tribes, i.e. Qing, Gente, and Gota in the north and align their Thegns politically with Aquila. He must also increase and prepare his hastily formed Black Hat Legion for the coming war with Diamonte and its allies. This episode introduces Marcus to the effects of magic and the addition of magic to his Black Hat tactics. Get ready for plenty of action in the Battle for Amatista. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Roman history with a twist of Sci-fi

To start off, I really enjoy Will’s narration. I think he does an excellent job.
Secondly I have always enjoyed Roman history and since I also conduct battlefield tours, I can relate a bit to some of the battle scenes.
And I also enjoy a little sci-if.

I don’t like a lot of swearing (even though I know that soldiers are very often course!)
