The Ninth Legion marched into the mists of northern Britain - and they
were never seen again. Four thousand men disappeared and their eagle
standard was lost. It's a mystery that's never been solved, until now
. . . Marcus has to find out what happened to his father, who led the
legion. So he sets out into the unknown, on a quest so dangerous that
nobody expects him to return. The Eagle of the Ninth is heralded as
one of the most outstanding children's books of the twentieth century
and has sold over a million copies worldwide. Rosemary Sutcliff writes
with such passion and attention to detail that Roman Britain is
instantly brought to life and stays with the reader long after the
last page has been turned. The book is also now the subject of a major
film.
