In a maelstrom of war and treachery, the men of the Forgotten Legion are fighting for their lives.
Ben Kane was born in Kenya and raised there and in Ireland. He
studied veterinary medicine at University College Dublin but after
that travelled the world extensively, indulging his passion for
ancient history. Now he lives in North Somerset, where he
researches, writes and practises as a small animal vet. The Silver
Eagle is his second novel. For more information please visit

The Forgotten Legion marches again. On an epic scale, Ben Kane
vividly captures the heat and the dust, and the despair of the
survivors of a defeated Roman army now forced to fight for their
savage captors in the barbarous lands of the east. Three men with
nothing left to live for but each other and the memories of a life
they fear they will never return to. Tarquinius, Romulus and
Brennus battle for their very existence in the face of impossible
odds while, back in Rome, Romulus's sister Fabiola is threatened by
the same political forces that threaten to destroy the Republic.
The Silver Eagle is an utterly engrossing combination of historical
fact and believable fiction that draws the reader in and holds his
interest to the last page.
