A Captive in Rome

“You can tell your grandchildren you saw the last great battle, when we got rid of the Romans for ever.”

Ten year old Bryn and his brother, Conan, young Britons from the Iceni tribe, are taken captive by the Romans after the defeat of Queen Boudicca’s forces. They find themselves in Rome, where Bryn is sold as a slave to a rich man and Conan is trained to be a gladiator.

Separated from his brother, the only friend Bryn has in Rome is fellow slave Tiro. But Bryn refuses to give in, and is determined to find a way to escape slavery, rescue his brother, and find their way back to their homeland..
