Description
The Leopard Sword is the latest installment in Anthony Riches' epic historical fiction series. After the tumultuous events in Britannia, Marcus Valerius Aquila must leave the province he has called home to protect his friends from the wrath of the emperor. As he leads his men from Hadrian's Wall to the Tungrians' original home in Germania Inferior, he finds a world vastly different from the one he left behind. In the once-prosperous farming province of Tungrorum, a city already reeling from the devastating effects of the eastern plague, a new threat emerges. A ruthless bandit chieftain, known only by his iron cavalry helmet, has taken to robbing and killing with impunity, leaving a trail of death and destruction in his wake. His sword, sharper and stronger than any known to the Roman army, is the symbol of his unstoppable power. As the northern frontier of the empire teeters on the brink of chaos, Marcus and his men must navigate this treacherous landscape to uncover the truth behind the bandit's identity and put an end to his reign of terror.
