Fortress of Steel by Jeff Jones

Fortress of Steel by Jeff Jones

A new thrilling adventure series set in Ancient Rome! For fans of Ben Kane, Conn Iggulden, Bernard Cornwell and Simon Scarrow.

Could an unruly band of slaves and thieves prove to be the toughest legion serving Rome...?

Rome, AD 59

When the son of his commanding officer is taken prisoner, young centurion Marcus Corvo is tasked with recruiting men from the underbelly of the Empire to rescue him.

Corvo sets about scouring the gladiatorial arenas, prisons and slave markets, for men desperate and tough enough to join him on what is likely to be a suicide mission.

The quest will take them to the eastern fringes of the Empire where the prisoner is being held in Armenia.

Corvo attempts to mould his recruits into a cohesive fighting force, but long before they are ready they are ordered to leave.

In a land where brother fights brother, and where Corvo and his men could easily be mistaken for the enemy or deserters, Corvo must keep his wits about him as they cross hostile land.

Can Corvo keep his wilful legion of men in line? Will they work together to complete the task?

Or will the journey prove too perilous for even the most hardened men of Rome...?

FORTRESS OF STEEL is the first book in the Legion of the Damned Roman Thrillers series: action-packed, authentic historical military adventures set in Ancient Rome.
