Another review has been completed for our Roman Books section, thanks to community member Lost_Warrior.

When I first opened Simon Scarrow’s Under the Eagle, I did not know what to expect. I found it to be instantly compelling; from the very first word I found myself eager for more. I even read the prologue; something I rarely take time to do but I just had to gobble up every single delicious adventure-filled word. For those who also tend to skip over prologues, I highly recommend reading this one, as it really does set up the story...

If we couldn't tell by the review, I think we just got the message :blink: Have you moved on to the other books in the series?

i've read all the books in the eagle series so far and you'll be happy to know that they just keep getting better and better, cato and macro continue to get into more and more scrapes and life threatening situations but always manage to save the day and the battle scenes get bigger and more intense as ther series goes on

I've read the Eagles series as far as it goes, too, and I have to agree, they're brilliant. :o Macro is such a loveable rogue! I can't wait for the next one, I think they're wonderful...curious as to what's happening next....wish there was some way to find out! :(

Im a great fan of Scarrows books too,if you liked his novels you'll like Bernard Cornwell's historical fiction,there styles are very similar.

I still havent read the last book in the series (its on my list) but i greatly enjoyed Macro and Cato's romp over Brittania ;) .

I'm way late in piping in, but I just discovered the "Eagle" series by Scarrow and share the enthusiasm with the other posters in this thread. It's a fun series to read. I'm in the middle of #3 - "Where the Eagle Hunts", and so far I like the second book best of the first three.

Nobody's going to accuse these books of being too deep, but they're just downright fun.

I am a big fan of Simon Scarrow's books. I started off by reading the Eagles Prey, and that got me into the series. Right now I am reading Centurion, which is the last book in the series. I think these books are great, the characters are all good, and so are the plots.

Centurion isn't the last one in the series, Macro. "The Gladiator" came out the other day, so more macro and cato for you.
