Eagle of the Ninth

"It was twilight when they reached the dun on its hill shoulder above the still waters of the loch; the soft mulberry twilight of the west coast, through which the firelit doorways of the living-huts bloomed like yellow crocus flowers dimly veined with red." Sounds really interesting, right? Make way for some adventure in an equally thrilling, literary and near-perfect work of fiction by Rosemary Sutcliff. Brave young men like your kids should not miss out Eagle of the Ninth, one of the most outstanding children's books of all time!
