About this title: It's fourth-century Rome, and the empire is on the skids.

"Good historical fiction set in 3rd Century Britain. It is a story of love, betrayal and adventure set amidst the conflict between Romans and Celts along Hadrian's Wall, which was meant to separate the barbarians from the civilization of the time."
"Great book. A historical romance written by a man means bloody battle scenes. Female character is a little naive; that usually turns me off, but she didn't ruin the story. I love this time period...think Clive Owen in King Arthur."
"I finished re-reading this book, and was astounded to discover that it was exactly as I remembered it - a mix of good historical fiction set in Roman Britain and highly speculative junk lit. Interestingly enough, the Romans are not really the heroes nor villains of the piece, but on the whole their portrayal is more negative than positive."
"Meh. Not bad, but too romance-laden for my taste. I mean, I'm all for hunky barbarians with modern sensitivity to sexual equality and an amazing ability in the sack - I'm just not sure I believe in them historically."
