Eagle in Exile (The Hesperian Trilogy #2)

The Roman Empire has crossed to North American shores in a cataclysmic clash of warriors and cultures...

After successfully repelling an invasion by the fearsome Iroqua tribes, Marcellinus realizes that a weak and fractured North America won't stand a chance against the returning Roman army. Worse, rival factions from within threaten to tear Cahokia apart.

Marcellinus is determined to save the civilization that now means more to him than the empire he once served.

"Eagle in Exile has the pace and scope of a Michener or Uris epic.. Smale's action scenes slash across page after page, intense and bloody.. Grab your dagger and sword, for the battle continues." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
