[books 2013] More Falco

Actually, I've got a few to catch up on, but some require more consideration than I can give right now.

9. The Iron Hand of Mars by Lindsey Davis

Another one (I think the last) that I'm familiar with from the BBC radio plays.

This is by far my favourite of the series so far, and is likely to stay that way. Falco is dispatched to Germany in search of a missing legate, and information on the situation in general. He discovers the fate of a lost legion, and finds himself accidentally straying into a sacred grove.

The Eagle of the Ninth was one of those books that I re-read lots as a kid; anything with lost legions along with dangerous tribal beliefs has me hooked.
