About this listen

A gladius is a short sword. A prodigy is a talented youth. Put them together and people die.

Welcome to 271 BC

This is not the full-time professional Legion of Imperial Rome. This is the levied Legion of the mid-Republic and it is messy.

If you like Roman adventure and 3rd Century military historical fiction, you will love the Clay Warrior Stories series.

Going further than historical fiction, the Clay Warrior Stories are adventure books designed to make you want to strap on a shield, draw a gladius, and join a Legion battle line.

Set in the years before and during the 1st Punic War, the series follows the exploits of a young, hot-headed swordsman. From a lad on his father's farm, to a Legion training camp, to the Capital of the Republic, Alerio Sisera learns that sharp steel and quick reflexes are not always a Legionary's best assets.

A fairly weak piece of writing.

I had high hopes for this book set in the Roman Empire in the early Republic. I feel I’m being a bit generous awarding two stars. Unfortunately it wasn’t a strong historical narrative. There didn’t seem to be a great deal of depth in providing historical context or details. The story itself had potential but seemed to dwell on the gore rather than developing characters or the plot. The narrator was also a bit disappointing. I waded through this novel but was left wondering why I’d bothered.
