Description
A thrilling Roman adventure from Carnegie Medal winning author Theresa Breslin OBE. The minute that Marubetta meets Lucius, she hates him - pompous, stuck-up nephew of a Roman official! He thinks that, as a Briton, she is terribly provincial and she finds him arrogant and big-headed. But the year is 397 AD and life in Roman Britain is getting dangerous. And when Marinetta's home near Hadrian's Wall is raided, Marinetta and Lucius are forced to act together. Flashbacks offer dramatic stories set in key moments of history, perfect for introducing children to historical topics. Ideal for children aged 9+ Book Band: Grey
