Led by Commander Marcus Artorius Agricola, the five thousand
soldiers of Rome's Ninth Legion are legendary for their aggressive
fighting skills and superb leadership. The Legion is stationed in
Britannia in the year AD 122, and Rome sends them north of York to
subdue the unruly Pict tribes.
But when they arrive, the unthinkable happens. They are routed
and forced to flee toward the coast, ending up at a Pict holy
place. Here, the entire Legion is mysteriously teleported to
England at the beginning of World War II. The terrified men
suddenly find themselves pursued from the air by "flying crosses"
and on the ground by a relentless crew of British soldiers.
The Legion flees to Crail, Scotland, trying to come to grips
with their new reality. They discover that one of the Picts, a
vicious holy man named Mormaer, has time-traveled with them. Worse,
he is quickly learning the ways of this new world and won't
hesitate to use his deadly knowledge against his enemies.
When the Legion discovers that they are right in the path of
another invading force-the Germans-they know they will continue to
do their duty and defend Great Britain. But their shields and
swords are no match for this era's technology. What's more, with
Mormaer waiting to strike, the Legion may not survive what could be
their last battle.
