Full review here.

I’ve been a big fan of Baxter’s sci-fi writing in the past (the Manifold: series is worth a re-read here sometime soon) so I picked this one up on the strength of his name alone. Supposedly this is an “alternate history” novel. I’ll have to admit that I guess I’m not familiar enough with the early Roman domination of Britain to know which parts were alternate. It does have an ending that really sets up the next book, though… not a bad read.

The continuation of Baxter’s alternate history series. Good stuff.

The second in the series, this “alternate history” deals with the ages leading up to the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Interesting to think about that period. I have enjoyed the series thus far.
