**An exclusive digital short from Ben Kane, ‘the rising star of historical fiction’ (Wilbur Smith). **
A day out with comrades, brutal gladiator fights, a bet with disastrous consequences. A Roman soldier’s much anticipated payday plays out in very different ways to those he expected.
**The German frontier, AD 12.** Legionary Marcus Piso is set to enjoy a four monthly payday with his comrades. Wine, food and gladiatorial entertainment are on offer, and his purse is full.
But thanks to a dishonest bet maker, events take on a very dangerous life of their own...
**The Arena** is a prequel to Ben Kane's upcoming novel, **Hunting the Eagles**, the second in the new gripping three-part series, **Eagles of Rome**. It also includes a sample chapter from the new book.
