Clash of Iron

By: Angus Watson

Narrated by: Sean Barrett

The second book in Angus Watson's epic Iron Age fantasy trilogy.

Leaders are forged in the fires of war.br>
Iron Age warriors Dug and Lowa captured Maidun castle and freed its slaves. But now they must defend it.

A Roman invasion is coming from Gaul, but rather than uniting to defend their home, the British tribes go to battle with each other -- and see Maidun as an easy target.

Meanwhile, Lowa's spies infiltrate Gaul, discovering the Romans have recruited British druids. And Maidunite Ragnall finds his loyalties torn when he meets Rome's charismatic general, Julius Caesar.

War is coming. Who will pay its price?

Critic reviews

"Watson's tale is gore soaked and profanity laden -- full of visceral combat and earthy humor, and laced with subtle magic."—Publishers Weekly on Age of Iron

Best Narration ever

The narrator is incredibly talented and both thru accents and tone, manages to completely invoke multiple characters.
Only one thing, he does make Julias Caesar sound like Noel Coward which made me smile ever time the character spoke.

I can't stop crying

I'm just want to say I don't even know if I want to read 3 without Dug. He was really the messianic warrior hero they out. Wether or not any of his peers noticed or not. It seems only magot, Lora & spring truly knew what a blessing his presence was in they're world. I've listened to the end 4 times now & I know it was a genius plan on the Druids part & nessasary but it still has broken my heart

Great story telling, great narrator!

Fun listen! Looking forward to next in the series! Wish there was not a 15 word minimum for the reviews.

For all Abercrombie and grrm fans

Watson is definetly on the shortlist now, will read anything he writes, and hopefully there will be a lot more. Most of the time you are lucky to find one strength in a book: well written, great world building/research, great characters and development, and last but not least great story, Watson has done all of these here and more. Well done.

Brilliant Fiction-Shiny Characters

Unique characters who develop and grow or change in a story is a must. That's what I like about GoT and they're present in abundance in this book. Also a unique perspective on the Britons' time period and a clever plot. I'm ready for the next one!
