Eagle of the Empire (Relic Hunters) by Martin Ferguson – Review by Shadel Ayerbe

Eagle of the Empire by Martin Ferguson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Eagle of the Empire (Relic Hunters) by Martin Ferguson is a great young adult series.

Sixteen-year-old Adam Hunter learns that the stories and tales he was told as a child have more truth to them than he ever imagined when his brother vanishes abruptly. Adam has to discover the truth about the Roman Ninth Legion’s disappearance and locate its renowned Eagle Standard—an artifact of enigmatic, mythological power—in order to set his brother free. Adam enlists the assistance of the British Museum, whose eccentric Relic Hunters are adept at locating and preserving treasures all across the world. They must go quickly, though, as they are not the only ones looking for the artifact. Adam and his comrades must battle an immortal tyrant who wants to take possession of the Eagle of the Empire in order to save their brother’s life.

Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. The story really brings us into their world. I couldn’t put the book down.
