About this listen

Against the mighty splendour of the glorious Roman Empire, unfolds the magnificent new saga, perfect for fans of Conn Iggulden.

Correus and Flavius. Half-brothers, sons of a brilliant general. One, son of a slave woman, is a born warrior destined to excel. The other, a nobleman by birth, must struggle relentlessly to succeed.

When they both join the Centuriate, a position Flavius has always known he will inherit, and one that Correus has long coveted, it is together that they face the brutal reality of war. Fighting German barbarians will prove dangerous, not only to their bodies but to their souls as well...

The Centurions, book one in this epic Roman adventure trilogy, is perfect for Simon Scarrow and Ben Kane's fans.

Damion Hunter is a pseudonym of Amanda Cockrell. Along with the Centurions Trilogy, she is also the author of Pomegranate Seed, What We Keep Is Not Always What Will Stay, the historical trilogies The Deer Dancers and The Horse Catchers, and The Legions of the Mist, a Roman historical adventure novel. She lives in Roanoke, Virginia.

I have a new favorite book!

I found it easy and extremely fat for me to be totally invested in the main characters. I can't wait to start the next one.

First, the Narration was GREAT!

Not overdone, but parts were unique.
The Story a bit formulaic, but different enough + narration made for an enjoyable Read. I hope it can be maintained through the series.
In my OPINION, the “Griff Hosker” brand is all about quantity, not always quality. ‘Centurion’ was above the average.

Good story. For historical accuracy look elsewhere

It was a good story for sure, but if you're a stickler for historical accuracy it may not be for you. I liked the story but I am pretty well versed in Roman history and there were some glaring inaccuracies that grated the whole way through. The main one which in my mind was the most unforgivable was the fact that the centurionate in the Roman army did not function at all as described in the book as though it's akin to JROTC. Having military experience in the infantry I can also say that the relationship between the new centurion and his men is extremely oversimplified and shallow in this story and kind of a missed opportunity. The book is more of a story about the relationship between two brothers with the backdrop of a war.

Not so bad, not the one of the better

Quality wise, somewhat weak in between. Lost tempo. Allright story, but again, did not go the distance, for me. Narrator did his best, good..
