Marco, Cato
Brothers in Blood picks
up the tale of our two heroes straight after the events of The Blood Crows. Marco and Cato have re-joined General Ostorious’s
army and are hot on the heels of the infamous Briton leader Caratacus. With defeat of Caratacus’s army looking
imminent, Marco and Cato are sent North on a diplomatic mission to try and ensure
the island’s most powerful tribe- the Brigantes, remain loyal to Rome.
If this is not dangerous enough, an old acquaintance from
Rome comes to Britannia to warn the duo of an assassin sent to kill them! As a
rift between the Emperor’s two most powerful advisors widens, Marco and Cato
must eliminate this agent before they disrupt the fragile peace between Rome
and its Briton allies.
This was another great read from Scarrow. I didn’t like it
as much as The Blood Crows but the
plot was extremely thrilling and as usual, Scarrow portrays the sieges and
battles in the book in all their grimy and bloody details. Another solid
edition to the Eagles series and I
can’t wait to see where the next novel takes our two heroes!
Of course I would suggest this book to anyone who has read
any of the other Eagles novels. I’d
also suggest it to fans of Ben Kane, Anthony Riches, Gordon Doherty and Nick Brown.
