From the publisher

The first book in Adam Lofthouse's Enemy of the Empire series. An action-packed adventure set outside the boundaries of Ancient Rome.

Raven: Defier of Rome is a book I wish I'd written!' - Michael Jecks

Chief Killer. Battle Turner. Oathbreaker.

Alaric is an enemy of Rome.

144 AD. Alaric Hengistson, leader of the Ravensworn, revels in his many fear-fuelled names whispered in the hearth flames. Cunning in battle, a ruthless war lord. He sleeps sound in the knowledge that he has been chosen by the Gods for a higher purpose ' to rise up against the tyranny of an Empire.

For years he has thwarted Rome's attempts to gain control over the land that has long resisted them. His land. Germania. However the rules are changing, and new deals are struck between the conquering Roman legions and the feuding Germanic tribes. Deals that could prove Alaric's downfall.

As the eagles march with the wolves, together hunting the Raven, Alaric must prove his legend or watch his Ravensworn burn in flames.

A must read for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Matthew Harffy, Ben Kane and Simon Scarrow.

*Title previously published as Oathbreaker

Raven: Defier of Rome is ideal for lovers of Ben Kane's and Tony Riches' Roman stories - this is the story from the other side of the shield wall. Blood, guts and glory for the man who stood against Rome!' Michael Jecks

Raven offers a thrilling view of Rome and its interactions with the Germanic tribes. Highly recommended MJ Porter

The characters are full of the life of the period, their flaws, their doubts, their abilities all on display; a feast for the readers Hoover Book Review

A great mix of legion comradery with a personal plot you can get invested in, add in a couple of big twists along the way and you've got a smashing read David's Book Blurg
