From bestselling historian Adrian Goldsworthy, the final book in
his authentic, action-packed trilogy set on the frontiers of the
Roman Empire. Britannia, AD 117: Roman centurion Flavius Ferox is
trying to live a quiet life of dignified leisure, overseeing his
wife's estate and doing his best to resist the urge to murder an
annoying neighbour - until someone else does it for him. Dragged
back into a life of violence, Ferox finds himself chasing raiders,
fighting chieftains and negotiating with kings, journeying far into
the north just as war breaks out. With the new emperor, Hadrian,
sending agents from Rome, the whole world seems to be changing: old
friends become enemies, enemies claim they are friends, and new and
deadly threats lurk in the shadows. When, five years later, Hadrian
himself comes to Britannia to inspect his great wall, a new war
erupts suddenly, dividing tribes and families. Ferox is the only
one who can save the emperor - but with his family, and his own
life, in danger, Ferox must first decide whose side he is on...
Gritty, gripping and profoundly authentic, The Wall, set against
the construction of Hardian's Wall, is the final book in the City
of Victory trilogy from bestselling historian Adrian Goldsworthy.
