  • "In The Eagle of the Ninth, Marcus, a young centurion, embarks on a quest north of Hadrian's Wall to discover what had happened to his father's Legion and, if possible, to recover the famous Eagle, symbol of the Legion's honour. In The Silver Branch, a young Roman army medical officer, sent to Britain during the period of waning Roman rule, befriends a kinsman with whom he shares an adventure of intrigue, exile, and underground activity with the lost Ninth Legion. Finally, in The Lantern Bearers, Aquila, a young officer, decides that his loyalties lie with Britain, and he eventually joins the forces of the Roman-British leader Ambrosius to fight against the Saxon hordes. Suggested level: intermediate, secondary."
