Critics Review
This is a book that honours all those who have fought for a cause. It is a tale that shines like the Eagle at its heart.I suspect that no one else writes like MC Scott. I’m certain plenty wish they could. * Giles Kristian *Brutal, touching, learned and above all captivating. This story of defeat and victory in Rome’s war with Parthia had me hooked from the first page. * Tony Riches *Gladiator meets Tinker Tailor in a baroque landscape * Robert Lowe *M.C.Scott stakes a bold claim to a place in the canon of cherished adventures. Rome: The Eagle of the Twelfth succeeds thrillingly. It’s gripping, absorbing, and thoroughly entertaining, right to the last moment of desperate action and decision. * Robert Wilton *Stirring stuff written by a lady who has proved her worth over and over again, rivalling any other offerings by popular male writers such as Bernard Cornwell and Simon Scarrow. * Shropshire Star *
