Critics Review

Praise for AGENT OF ROME: THE IMPERIAL BANNER:

‘The Imperial Banner is Roman adventure at its best… brutal action leavened by a cynical brand of military humour, history, mystery, romance and an almost tangible sense of cohesion and camaraderie amongst Cassius and his cohorts. It’s a formula that works well in so Brown’s capable hands… Cassius’s next assignment can’t come too soon!’ - Lancashire Evening Post

If you love Scarrow, adore Iggulden and of course admire Scott, then make sure you add Brown to your list. Great stuff. - Falcata Times

‘A masterful debut from a new author completely at home in this era’ - Manda Scott

Once the action kicks off you won’t be able to put it down. - Anthony Riches, author of the Empire series

Perfect pace, vivid combat sequences and superb characterisation - Lancashire Evening Post

Brown promises to be one of the most exciting sword-wielding writers in an ever-popular arena. - The Oxford Times

A thrilling and fascinating coming-of-age adventure - Book Gazette

Nick Brown has the craft of storytelling at his fingertips … The Siege is a fast-paced and satisfying read - Russell Whitfield, author of Gladiatrix
