Another enjoyable book about The Last Roman
In my reviews of these books, I always compare them to the successful and long-running Casca series, but the similarities are only in the basic concept. These two different book series' focus on a Roman Legionnaire, cursed to immortality and to wander the earth, surrounded by seemingly endless violence. But each series has a different feel, very different plot arcs and move in very different directions. As I enjoyed Casca, I have also greatly enjoyed reading about Marcus Graccus, The Last Roman. I hope the author continues this series and publishes many more of them.

A last Roman novella
Insurrection : a novella in the The Last Roman series by B.K.Greenwood was a short but exciting read! Marcus and Thomas are still in Judea fighting against Legionaries and hoping to bring peace.

Good
Good quick read. The story definitely makes more sense if you have read the full novels. Lots of action packed in this one.
