THE EPIC NEW EAGLES OF THE EMPIRE NOVEL FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR SIMON SCARROW

AD 63. Under the reckless and tumultuous leadership of Emperor Nero, Rome has descended into near-anarchy. The brutal execution of 400 slaves has causes riots and worse. Only the strongest military commander could maintain control. And Nero has learned of one man who could save the day - and his own reign.

Prefect Cato has been lying low after a heroic campaign to quash the Boudica uprising. Now furlough is over. As the new Prefect of the Urban Cohort of the Praetorian Guard, Cato needs a loyal and proven military hero by his side. Centurion Macro is willing to step up. Comrades come before family - and civilian life is dull after a lifetime on the battlefield . . .

War and rebellion hold few fears for these heroic veterans. But the politics and intrigue of Rome make every day as dangerous as in warfare, while their fate lies in the hands of the most volatile emperor in history. The ultimate punishment awaits anyone who disappoints Nero. Even his own mother could not escape his cruel justice.

Cato and Macro will need to call on all their strategic skills, native cunning and bottomless courage to save Rome - and to survive.

NO ONE KNOWS ROME BETTER THAN SIMON SCARROW!
