The survival of the Roman Empire is under threat and standing between her and bloody destruction is a single fort. Blood-soaked action is guaranteed in this war novel that combines Gladiator and Full Metal Jacket.

The Roman Empire is built on the efficient brutality of its soldiers, all ready to fight and die for it. Most of them live together as brothers, but a German force is slowly working its way through their ranks.

After losing most of his comrades-in-arms to a devastating onslaught, Legionary Felix and the other unlucky survivors are taken as slaves - they can do nothing to stop the treacherous Arminius's united German tribes from felling legion after legion. Steadily the force slaughter outposts, none saw the attacks coming and with each day they move towards Rome.

Only when a lone fort, Aliso, manages to keep the bloodbath at bay do Felix and his comrades flee, ready to join their fellow soldiers in the fight and protect the Empire from an army capable of tearing it apart.

Industry Reviews

A blood-soaked page-turner * Mail on Sunday *
Historical fiction written by a real war veteran who knows all there is to know about blood and bonding in battle. An earthy and powerful read. * Weekend Sport *
Gives Rome's legionaries a contemporary voice - this is brutal, audacious and fast paced writing * Anthony Riches, author of Empire series *
Geraint Jones takes no prisoners in this visceral tale of Roman soldiers harried to their physical and mental limits by an implacable enemy. Siege is a story of comradeship, sacrifice and endurance in an outpost drained of hope. Only the toughest will survive -- Doug Jackson
Every page is drenched with the soldier's experience: What it means to be loyal to the state and to friends, the unspeakable horrors of war and the instinct to survive, and the twisted bonds between brothers in arms -- Giles Kristian
