I watched the movie The Eagle way back in 2011. I thought the story was so interesting that I added this book to my to read list. I am so excited to finally get around to it after finding it at a used book store.

Missing Legion in the wild beyond Hadrian's wall. Lost honour. Redemption, friendship and a journey home. Sutcliff wrote a masterful novel for all ages. #maybookflowers #missing

A Roman soldier in Britain is injured beyond the ability to serve, and then decided to chase the legend of his father's lost legion north of Hadrian's wall to try to regain the lost eagle.
A fun story and nicely written. I enjoyed it, but I won't continue with the series, at least for now.

I love this book. A great historical fiction read. Great plot, charcters, and full of action. A bit boring at first. I would give this book four stars. I am of celtic descent. So I really enjoy reading anything based in Ireland and about the celtic tribes.
