In the winter of 44 years after the birth of Christ, the Roman forces in Britain eagerly awaited the onset of spring to resume the campaign for the conquest of the island. The disobedient Britons, meanwhile, became increasingly sophisticated in their resistance, not disinclined to stab the Romans in the back. Captured the wife and children of General Plaut, centurion Macron and his loyal friend Cato will have to hurry to prevent the Druids from sacrificing prisoners to their dark gods... Vespasian and the Second Legion of the Roman Army are moving forward in their campaign to capture the southwest. Macron and the newly appointed centurion Cato are tasked with helping Verica, the elderly ruler of the Atrebates, turn his tribal army into a formidable force that can defend power from enemy raids. But, despite the official commitment of the Atrebates to Rome, many are opposed to the Roman invaders, which means that the heroes will first win the loyalty of the wavering militias. Included in the collection of novels by Simon Skarrow “Eagle Attacks” and “Eagle and Wolves” continue the famous cycle “Eagles of the Empire”, which is dedicated to the Roman legionaries and whose books have become bestsellers in many countries of the world.
