| book description |

A vicious struggle between Germanic warriors and the might of Rome. A Roman-educated chieftain uniting `barbarianâ€™ tribes against his former commanders. An ambush which lead to the slaughter of three legions. The battle of the Teutoburg Forest in AD 9 was one of the greatest military disasters of the Roman empire. It witnessed the near-total annihilation of a Roman force three legions strong under Publius Quinctilius Varus, lured into a deadly trap by the Roman officer and Cheruscan nobleman Arminius on the pretext of assisting with the Roman pacification of the Germanic tribes. Stranded in unfamiliar forested country in the midst of torrential rain and mud, harried by lightning attacks from Arminiusâ€™ allies and abandoned by their Germanic cavalry, the legionaries struggled on in a desperate effort to break through to open ground. This colourful graphic novel tells the whole story of the running ambush and its climax in the narrow pass near Kalkriese, bringing the conflict vividly to life through the eyes of both the victorious Germanic tribesmen and the doomed Roman legionaries. Combining an authentic historical narrative with striking visuals and master storytelling, Teutoburg Forest brings the history of one of Romeâ€™s greatest defeats vividly to life.
