description: Heiress of HonorHer name was Boudicca. Beautiful, high-born, with her flaming red hair matched by her fiery spirit, she was held in check only by the caution of her royal husband as the legions of Imperial Rome under Claudius Caesar marched over Britain. But as the English rebel chiefs fell, one by one, only Boudicca was left to lead a desperate people in history's proudest and most passionate fight for freedom.Here is a tremendous epic that sweeps from the valleys and mountains of still barbaric Britain to the classic grandeur and corruption of Claudius's Rome. Here is an unforgettable drama of a warrior queen torn between love and destiny, as she laid aside her woman's robes and lifted high her sword.
