Agricola: Invader by Simon Turney

SIMON TURNEY'S THRILLING NEW ROMAN EMPIRE NOVEL AGRICOLA: COMMANDER AVAILABLE NOW! The story of Agricola, one of Ancient Rome's most epic figures. 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...
