Eagle of The Empire by Martin Ferguson
4.0
I'd like to thank Martin Ferguson for inviting me to read and review Relic Hunters: Eagle Of The Empire. This is the first book in the Relic Hunters series. It follows Adam Hunter, who is a sixteen year old boy and he's thrown into a world where the myths and legends in stories come to life.
Now I've got to be honest here and say that when I first saw the cover, I automatically thought that this book was not my cup of tea. But, after reading the synopsis something grabbed me and made me want to read the book. I'm so glad that I followed my gut to go ahead and read it.
What I enjoyed about Eagle Of The Empire was the intertwining of historical references and real life myths into the story. I was straight onto Google to check out the story behind the Roman Ninth Legion. Yes, Ferguson has used his artistic license to fabricate a few things but what we get is a fantastic story of adventure and thrills.
I really liked the characters involved in this story. Firstly, Adam's enthusiasm to discover and to solve the mysteries brings passion into the tale. Then the team in the British Museum all have their own expertise to bring to the table, and this gives the reader a better understanding and knowledge of the history.
Eagle of The Empire is a fantasy adventure series, where you will get a thrill seeking ride and learn a few bits along the way.
