This is the story of Boudicca, the most famous warrior of ancient Britain, and of Caradoc, the son of a Celtic king, who set out to unite the people of the Raven and lead them against the might of Rome.
As the Roman army advances into Britain, pillaging and burning villages to the ground, Caradoc's efforts are met with fierce opposition from Aricia, the vain queen of a northern tribe who swears allegiance to the Romans.
When Caradoc is taken prisoner, it falls to Boudicca to realise her destiny and finish what he has begun...
This unforgettable retelling of Britain's resistance against Rome is perfect for fans of Conn Iggulden, Colleen McCullough and Bernard Cornwell.
