Eagle's Honour
These two stories, less than 70 pages each, were written 15 years apart but are well linked by the common setting and themes of Roman Britain. The first is an especially powerful and clever piece of storytelling. The humble horse-breeder seems to have been caught out admitting to being the hero of a past battle. Finally, we get the story of the battle and find out who the hero really was. This is wonderfully recounted and, though the older of the two stories, is as sharp as ever and just waiting for new readers.
