Clay Legionary

Clay Warrior Stories, Book 1

By: J. Clifton Slater

Narrated by: P.J. Ochlan

A gladius is a short sword. A prodigy is a talented youth. Put them together and people die.  

Welcome to 271 BC 

This is not the full-time professional Legion of Imperial Rome. This is the levied Legion of the mid-Republic and it is messy. 

If you like Roman adventure and 3rd Century military historical fiction, you will love the Clay Warrior Stories series. 

Going further than historical fiction, the Clay Warrior Stories are adventure books designed to make you want to strap on a shield, draw a gladius, and join a Legion battle line.

Set in the years before and during the 1st Punic War, the series follows the exploits of a young, hot-headed swordsman. From a lad on his father's farm, to a Legion training camp, to the Capital of the Republic, Alerio Sisera learns that sharp steel and quick reflexes are not always a Legionary's best assets.

Technical issues in playback of story

Great story, lots of learning about the origin, too bad playback detracted from the story

Well written fight scenes

I am really enjoying this series. The narration is wok done. The fight scenes are very well written. Wish each book was 16 hours long!

Fantastic but needs a little more

I love this audiobook. Great storyline...kept me interested. well worth the credit. I would like to see the character fleshed out a little more and a little more world building. the storyline is great and can handle a more descriptive approach to the characters and his surrounding world without loosing the attention of the reader. will buy the Second book. ty
