Battle weary and fearless Centurion Drusus Tuscus has only three more years in the Roman Legions and then he can return home to the mother and young brother he was forced to leave behind seventeen summers ago. Drusus has suffered much during his years in the Legions: defeats, fallen comrades and excruciating wounds, but this time the stakes are so much higher. As he prepares to lead his warriors from the safety of their winter base, across the Rhine into the wilds of Germania, he awaits the arrival of new recruits to bolster his century. With these men he will face the ferocious barbarian tribes, many still chafing under the yoke of Roman subjugation.
When his friend and Optio returns with the new men, two faces in the crowd change everything for Drusus. His brother, long lost to him and now a man, stands before him and he brings with him a friend, a man named Caius. A man who stirs the long dead fires of Drusus’s heart. Two men, neither of whom Drusus is willing to lose to a barbarian blade.
As the campaign begins, whispers of betrayal and rebellion stoke a fear in Drusus, especially as his arrogant commander refuses to take heed of the warnings. As catastrophe stalks their footsteps Drusus must balance his duty to Rome with his love for Caius. He will give everything he has to save his beloved brother, and Caius, the man who has stolen his heart.
Drusus y Caius me caen bien. La atracción entre ambos es clara.
Drusus no quiere dar el siguiente paso, ya que sóo le quedan 3 años para servir en la Legión; mientras que Caius todavía estará 20... Así que su relación parece condenada al fracaso.
Espero que coja unpoco de ritmo. No es aburrido, pero tampoco ha ocurrido gran cosa.
ME está decepcionando. La parte romántica había empezado bien, pero ahora se ha convertido en una obsesión... No sé si voy a ser capaz de soportar otra declaración de amor.
La trama también es un poco floja- Parecía que iba a ver algo interesante con la traición y la trampa, pero se ha quedado en casi nada para el lector.
