Reseña del editor:

Rome, 61 BC

RECRUITED as a gladiator, young Marcus Cornelius Primus faces a new life of brutal training, governed by strict rules, as he learns the skills of an elite warrior.

But Marcus cannot simply forget his past. His father lies murdered by soldiers and his mother has been kidnapped and forced into slavery. Marcus is determined to find his father's old commander, Pompeius the Great, to seek justice for his family and set his mother free.

Yet, unbeknown to him, Marcus is hiding a life-threatening secret. And if the Romans discover it, there will be no escape . . .

Contraportada:

'THIS IS YOUR NEW HOME.
FORGET YOUR PAST LIVES.
ALL THAT REMAINS IS TO LEARN HOW TO FIGHT AND SURVIVE.

IF YOU SURVIVE AND SUCCEED, YOU WILL FIGHT, AND MAYBE DIE, LIKE REAL MEN . . . LEARN ALL YOU CAN AND YOU MAY BE REWARDED WITH FAME, GLORY AND RICHES.

THINK ON THAT TONIGHT, AND IN THE MORNING YOUR TRAINING WILL BEGIN . . .'
