Reviews
Filled with blood and guts and gore recommended for older kids but I still enjoyed it

Caroline Lawrence is an amazing author. Her books tell such a good story. This book is focused on Ursula (Juba's sister) and her and family and Bouda go off in search of Dr Jonathan who is searching for his long-lost nephew for thirteen years. I love this book. It's for lovers of historical fiction. If you like this book you will love Emma Carroll " The queen of historical fiction." My favourite charater is Bouda who is Ursula and Juba's friend. She is an english girl who desented from Boudica who was her great grandmother. Bouda has red hair and a firey temper. I would recommend this to any history lovers. It is for around 8-9+. Happy Reading!
