About this listen
The first volume in a thrilling new historical adventure series by Simon Turney, critically acclaimed author of Legion XXII and Sons of Rome.
58 AD, Rome. Agricola, teenage son of an impoverished yet distinguished noble family, has staked all his resources and reputation on a military career. His reward? A posting as tribune in the far-off northern province of Britannia.
Serving under renowned general Suetonius Paulinus, Agricola soon learns the brutality of life on the very edges of the empire, for the Celtic tribes of Britannia are far from vanquished.
To take control of the province, the Romans must defeat the ancient might of the druids—and the fury of the Iceni, warriors in their thousands led by a redoubtable queen named Boudicca...

Great new characters
The characters, and narration, are slightly better than his last series, which was excellent anyway?

Agricola working with and against British tribes
Absolutely loved this story and the performance was brilliant. My first book from this author will definitely read and listen to his others. The voices and characterisation really brought the story to life I cannot wait for the next audible in the series. I hope Mark Elstob will continue to narrate it. The story was engaging and gave a real sense of the mindset in the Roman military and it's huge influence on upward progression in Roman life. I hope Lucci continues to be present he is an unforgettable character.

Fantastic!
As ever, Simon Turney does not disappoint! Couldn’t stop listening, fast paced but full of interesting characters especially the relationship between Agricola & his slave; Luci. Eagerly awaiting book 2 on audible.

Interesting
It lacked a brief historic note to let us know how much is speculation and sources - but otherwise very enjoyable.
