### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    All Simon Scarrow's books are brilliant
  

*by M***G on Reviewed in India on 8 August 2019*

I read the entire series of Cato & Macro books and am giving a break before I read them all again. Simon Scarrow and Conn Iggulden are my favorite authors. I believe that anyone interested in Roman history must read the entire Cato & Macro series and then Conn Iggulden's series on Julius Caesar.

    The beginning of Cato and Macro's journey!
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 January 2023*

It is Britain during the reign of the Emperor Claudius.  The Roman Army has a toehold, and are facing a lot of hostile natives. Some new recruits arrive at a fort. Among them is a well-dressed youth who seems out of place amongst the other recruits.  This is Cato, a former slave who has been well educated and has grown up in palaces. He is assigned to Centurion Macro, a veteran of the legions who has only recently been promoted to his current rank. Although Cato would appear to be ill-suited to soldiering, under Macro's guidance he actually takes to it, and a special bond between the two men takes root.  They complement each other well with Macro's toughness and experience and Cato's intelligence and ability to read situations perfectly and formulate solutions. Macro and Cato will need all their talents as they are facing massive hostile armies and also intrigues from within their own ranks!  A really really good read!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Thorough enjoyable old-fashioned series, a fast and fun read
  

*by L***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 January 2018*

I'm very much enjoying working my way through this series. Yes, it's easy reading and not particularly sophisticated, but that's exactly what I'm enjoying as I'm in the mood to keep turning pages and watch the action bounce from one act of derring-do to another. Never a dull moment. The reason I haven't given this one five stars is that it's pretty silly how the gangling, utterly battle-inexperienced, weedy Cato goes into a fight and manages to defeat an awful lot of infinitely more skilled adversaries, not once, but repeatedly. If he were a woman he'd be called a Mary Sue (I'm not sure if there's a male equivalent!). I'd much rather have had him fall over, need rescuing, have lucky escapes etc, since he's obviously going to survive relatively intact, then have this skinny unfit youth suddenly knowing how to duck under a blow and whack his opponent into submission.That aside, it's cheerful, undemanding stuff. The few women are wives or girlfriends, the only gay guy is dead, it's all very old-fashioned, but if you approach the series on that basis you'll have a very entertaining time.
