Review:
M. C. SCOTT taught veterinary surgery at the universities of Cambridge and Dublin before taking up a career as a novelist. Now founder and Chair of the Historical Writers' Association, the novels have been shortlisted for the Orange Prize, nominated for an Edgar Award and translated into over twenty languages. In addition to the bestselling Boudica series, Scott is the author of an acclaimed sequence of Roman novels featuring the emperor's spy, Sebastos Pantera.
"This is a book that honours all those who have fought for a cause. It is a tale that shines like the Eagle at its heart. I suspect that no one else writes like MC Scott. I'm certain plenty wish they could."
—Giles Kristian
"Brutal, touching, learned and above all captivating. This story of defeat and victory in Rome's war with Parthia had me hooked from the first page."
—Tony Riches
"M. C. Scott stakes a bold claim to a place in the canon of cherished adventures. Rome: The Eagle of the Twelfth succeeds thrillingly. Its gripping, absorbing, and thoroughly entertaining, right to the last moment of desperate action and decision."
