i have just finished reading an excellent book called Centurion by simon scarrow. i want to know about any historic-fiction novels any of you have read.

this one is well worth a read. its about two centurions in the roman army who are sent on a treacherous mission with their two cohorts through the eastern desert, to a city that may be attacked soon by Parthia. they must rescue the king and hold off a parthian supporting rebel army that lays seige tro them in the citys citadal.
its quite new so you can easily find it in a book shop near you. now lets hear yours.
