Description
Vespasian's fourth adventure has taken a perilous turn. Following the assassination of Caligula and the proclamation of Claudius as Emperor, Vespasian finds himself in a precarious position. His three freedmen, Narcissus, Pallas, and Callistus, must now find a way to manufacture a quick victory for Claudius. Their quest takes them into Germania, where they hope to retrieve the lost Eagle of the Seventeenth, last seen nearly 40 years prior. However, they are not alone in their pursuit. A small band of cavalry accompanies Vespasian and his brother on this treacherous mission, pursued by hunters who leave corpses in their path. Sabotage and barbarian attacks threaten to derail their efforts. As Vespasian battles his way through the gloomy forests, he edges closer to the shores of Britannia, driven by a desire for the truth and the Eagle itself.
