"A typically exciting and involving story from Tom Palmer" -- LoveReading4Kids
"Brings a really interesting dimension for pupils learning about Roman Britain" -- Books for Topics
"Engaging yet easily accessible. The plot moves along quickly leaving the reader eager to find out what is happening and how it can be stopped. When reading for the first time, I devoured Dark Arena in one sitting. I just couldn't put the book down" -- Mr Davies Reads, Blog
