In AD 60, Boudica, war leader of the Eceni, led her people in a final bloody revolt against the occupying armies of Rome. It was the culmination of nearly twenty years of resistance against an occupying force that sought to crush a vibrant, complex civilization and replace it with the laws, taxes and slavery of the Roman Empire.

Gloriously imagined, Boudica: Dreaming the Eagle recreates the beginnings of a story so powerful its impact has survived through the ages, recounting the coming of age of Breaca, who at twelve kills her first warrior.

This is the unforgettable world of tribal Britain in the years before the Romans came: a twilight world of Dreamers and the magic of the gods; a world where warriors fight for honour as much as victory. It is a world of passion and courage and spectacular, heart-felt heroism pitched against overwhelming odds.

Over the past two decades Manda Scott has brought iconic historical figures back to life, reimagined and re-booted for the 21st century. Her crime novels have been shortlisted for many awards including Hen's Teeth for the Orange Prize and No Good Deed for an Edgar Award. Her work has been translated into over 20 languages. Mandaโ€™s bestselling Boudica series was optioned for television.

Jerome Flynn is an English actor and singer. His most recent โ€“ and iconic โ€“ role was that of Bronn in HBOโ€™s hit series Game of Thrones (2011 โ€“2019).

Liza Goddard is an English actress who has been a familiar face on British television for decades. Some of her on-screen credits include Woof! (1989โ€“1997) and Bernardโ€™s Watch (1997โ€“2001).

Philip Stevens is an award winning actor, writer and director. He has performed in and directed film and theatre productions around the world. He is also an experienced audiobook narrator who has featured in such titles as Winter's Fire by Giles Kristian and The Adventures of Inspector Steine (series three) by Lynne Truss.
