Historia
The 14th Gemina Martia Victrix Legion was the most celebrated unit of the early Roman Empire - a force that had been wiped out under Julius Caesar, reformed, and almost wiped out again. After participating in the a.d. 43 invasion of Britain, the 14th Legion achieved its greatest glory when it put down the famous rebellion of the Britons under Boudicca.

Fascinating and well written history of this legion that is filled with facts but still keeps you at the edge of your seat. Also great narrator.

Just a mess
Revisado: 12-28-22
Loved this author and series but by this volume, as it often happens, the author seems lost in its own world. Impossible to follow, convoluted and strange. I guess true aficionados may enjoy it, but as a casual reader, I’m done.

Historia
If anyone could be considered a Russian counterpart to the infamous British double-agent Kim Philby, it was Oleg Gordievsky. The son of two KGB agents and the product of the best Soviet institutions, the savvy, sophisticated Gordievsky grew to see his nation's communism as both criminal and philistine. He took his first posting for Russian intelligence in 1968 and eventually became the Soviet Union's top man in London, but from 1973 on he was secretly working for MI6.

Historia
Legion Dark Ops calls upon Chhun, Wraith, and the survivors of Victory Company to form an elite Kill Team of legionnaires in the aftermath of the Battle of Kublar. Their mission is clear: find and eliminate those responsible for the Kublar disaster. Standing between them and their objective are a maze of corrupt Republic officials, a spy on the verge of losing himself in deep cover, and the Zhee - a murderous species that will stop at nothing. But the biggest threat of all might be the truth they seek to uncover - a truth that could ignite a revolution. And engulf the galaxy in flames.

Great writer, gripping
Revisado: 01-05-19
WOW, and I don’t say that lightly. Great story, great plot, sucks you in both by the twists and turns (and I’m usually pretty good at seeing them coming), but just as importantly by giving you great characters on both sides to root for that you not only care about the larger plot, but also to both large and small players.

Historia
World War II began with a metallic roar as the German Blitzkrieg raced across Europe, spearheaded by the most dreaded weapon of the 20th century: the Panzer. No German tank better represents that thundering power than the infamous Tiger, and Otto Carius was one of the most successful commanders to ever take a Tiger into battle, destroying well over 150 enemy tanks during his incredible career.

Disjointed mess
Revisado: 05-25-17
Badly written, talks about irrelevant personal anecdotes and then jumps days, weeks and months without giving you any idea what has taken place. Also the writer has is too full of himself, clearly he thinks he is superior to all others. Waste of time and money.
