Almost a year has passed since the great barbarian army of the Senones crossed the Apeninnus and crushed the Etruscan forces outside Clusium. Determined to avenge the death of Crixos at the hands of the Roman general Numerius, the savage warriors of the barbarian leader Brennus recross the mountains and bear down on the city as Solemis and the Horsetail clan ravage Latium.
Confident in the might of their arms, the citizens of the great city gather on the Field of Mars to cheer their army as it marches to drive away the threat. But the battle does not follow its expected course. Overwhelmed by the ferocity and tenacious brutality of the Gaulish warriors the army of Rome is routed, and the Fabii and their fellow citizens face the judgement of Nemesis as the mournful howl of barbarian war horns approach.
Other gods also scheme, and the druid Catumanda begins to understand that her journey may have a terrible conclusion...
PRAISE FOR THE SWORD OF WODEN SERIES
'Entertaining and building into a really good trilogy. If you like Bernard Cornwell or Simon Scarrow you will love this.'
PRAISE FOR THE KING'S BANE SERIES
This is a book the likes of friends Cornwall, Kristian and Low, would give their eye-teeth to have written...do what you can or must to get hold of this book, you won't regret it.
SPEESH READS
PRAISE FOR THE CONQUEROR OF ROME SERIES
The real test of writing a series is the answer to the question, 'Do I want to read on?' I look forward with pleasurable anticipation to volume two, having enjoyed this far more than most of the commercially published fiction I have read and reviewed in the past two years.
