ARRIUS IS FACED WITH THE MOST FATEFUL DECISION OF HIS LIFE WHEN EMPEROR ANTONINUS PIUS PLANS TO EXTEND THE EMPIRE'S BORDER IN BRITANNIA NORTH OF HADRIAN'S WALL."On the contrary, Arrius, if you're fortunate enough to see the sun rise tomorrow, it will be you who will be on the way to Eboracum ¿ in chains, I might add. Guards seize him by order of Tribune Quintarius. Marcus Arrius, I place you under arrest for conspiring against the empire of Rome."At the fort called Banna, one of 14 forts on Hadrian's Wall, Marcus Arrius begins the slow process of turning around a dispirited and ineffective Tungrian Cohort stationed there. His efforts are made more challenging, and dangerous, by the hatred and jealousy of Matius Betto, the centurion he replaced as commander. It does not take long for Betto and Tribune Tiberius Quinterius to combine efforts to discredit Arrius. In time, Arrius gains the respect and loyalty of the officers and legionaries at Banna with the exception of a few disgruntled officers who remain committed to Betto. His malaise caused by the brutality of the Judaean war dissipates as his relationship with Ilya deepens when she becomes pregnant with their child. However, it is Ilya who becomes the unwitting means for Quinterius and Betto to accomplish their objective when her heritage and kinship to Beldorach, High Chieftain of the Selgovae are revealed."ARRIUS-Legacy is a fast-paced novel set in the early days of the Roman Wall. Full of action with twists and turns it is an exciting read. It is hard to put down.

The ending leaves the door wide open for the third in this very enjoyable series."-Griff Hosker, author of the Anarchy and Dragonheart book series."Preston Holtry's ARRIUS Volume 2, Legacy, is a smash hit.
