Though I've always been into Roman Military History, "Legion" culminates things for me in a lot of ways. I get so tired of reading about all the "big names" and seeing the Centurions and below as little more than window dressing. I especially liked that all the main characters were common Soldiers, who when you think about it are really no different than Soldiers in a modern army. The only drawbacks that I found were that there were too few battle scenes, and the story of Rufio's "past" was a bit on the cheesy side. However it does not take away from the overall story. Good overall storyline, with awesome characters.<br>

Sadly, novels of this nature are too few in number. <p></p><i></i>
