From celebrated author and illustrator Gary Northfield comes the exciting, hilarious and action-packed second title in this brilliant chapter book series, brimming with Roman facts.

After the huge success of Rumble with the Romans!, celebrated author and illustrator Gary Northfield creates another brilliantly fast-paced, funny and utterly bonkers adventure for Julius Zebra and his hapless pals to go on. Emperor Hadrian has one last favour to ask of the gladiator animals before he will grant them their greatest wish – freedom. They must go to the far-off and strange land of Britain to win over the crowds of his empire. But this will be no happy-go-lucky holiday… Instead of buckets and spades, our stripy hero and his friends will need all their powers and wits about them if they’re going to survive their most wild and rebellious opponents yet. Cram-packed with jokes and bursting with action, this is a hilarious romp and mad-cap introduction to Roman Britain.

An uproarious story that mixes loads of facts with a hilarious story. I would recommend this story to someone who loves facts and humorous stories.

I really liked this book, because it's very funny and also quiet silly. I learnt a bit about Roman numerals and little bit of Roman history at the end of the book. I also really liked when the Roman gladiators put on tattoos on their chest and became super strong.

I thought this book was funny, silly and adventurous. My favourite character was Felix the antelope because he has a rock collection. I would recommend it to people who like funny books, adventurous books and history.

This book is REALLY funny. Julius is promised freedom but denied it twice. I'd recommend this book to anyone aged 6 and over who likes action packed funny books.

this book was great and a amazing sequel to the first book i really liked how Julius has gone from a nobody to champions of two countries. And i thought it was really funny when Julius was chucked in a lake with two poisons snakes and it turns out they were massive fans.

Fun book and an exciting plot. I love how Julius Zebra leads a rebellion with the Britons at the end.

I would have loved it because I loved being a gladiator and, best of all, I would like to visit Rome. Gladiator means ferocious fighters which fight back against an animal or beast in a arena.

I like this because it’s got a bit of fiction & a bit of fact, and it’s funny.
