Book Description

A Roman adventure for the intrepid time-traveller, the cat, Ka, and her gallant rescuer.

Product Description

Topher Hope is on the move again. When his devoted cat, Ka, leaves a computer message saying she has gone to

CA;;LLevA

he follows her to a Romano-British settlement in AD 79. Ka is happy among the cat-adoring conquerors and their central heating! Topher, now a British boy, apprenticed to a Roman mosaic maker, has mixed loyalties. When the eagle, symbol of Roman power, disappears from the forum, threatening the fragile peace, Topher begins a desperate search. Can he find it and save his Roman friend, Marcus, from the Druid's murderous sickle? In this adventure Topher needs all the amazing powers of the time-travelling cat.

From the Author

While writing this story I made many visits to the deserted Roman city, Calleva Atrebatum, near Silchester. This is where the story is set. You can walk right round the walls. Combined with a visit to Reading Museum, where you can see the Roman eagle,the tile with the cat's paw print and many more artefacts - you can even dress in a Roman toga - it makes an excellent day out.

From the Back Cover

Ka, the time-travelling cat, has vanished again, leaving a clue, a Roman word, on Topher's computer

- Ca;;LLevA

At first Topher isn't worried. Surely she's safe among the cat-loving Romans? But when he follows her to Roman Britain, they're both soon embroiled in conflict.

As oppressed Britons fight the Romans, Topher faces a desperate choice - to help his British brother or his Roman friend?
