Hero of Rome - Tapa dura

The Roman grip on Britain is weakening. Emperor Nero has turned his face away from this far-flung outpost. The Druids are on the rise, spreading seeds of rebellion among the British tribes. Roman cruelty and exploitation has angered their British subjects. The warrior queen Boudicca will lead the tribes to war.

Standing against the rising tide of Boudicca's rebellion is Roman Tribune, Gaius Valerius Verrens, Commander of the veteran legions at Colonia. Valerius leads the veterans in a last stand against the unstoppable horde of Boudicca's rebel army. Step by step, the bloodied survivors are forced back into the Temple of Claudius. It is here that Valerius wins lifelong fame and the accolade Hero of Rome.

The warrior queen Boudicca is ready to lead the tribes to war.

The Roman grip on Britain is weakening. Emperor Nero has turned his face away from this far-flung outpost. The Romans' cruelty and exploitation have angered their British subjects, and now the Druids are on the rise, stoking the fires of this anger and spreading the spark of rebellion among the British tribes.

Standing against Boudicca's uprising is Roman tribune Gaius Valerius Verrens, Commander of the veteran legionaries of Colonia. One act of violence ignites the smouldering British hatred into the roaring furnace of war.

Colonia will be the first city to feel the wrath of Boudicca's revenge, and Valerius must gather his veterans for a desperate defence. Against incredible odds and with dwindling supplies they will fight to the death. And it is here that Valerius will win lifelong fame and the accolade Hero of Rome.
