Simon Scarrow.

Simon Scarrow is a UK-based author, born in Nigeria and now based in Norfolk. He completed a master's degree at the University of East Anglia after working at the Inland Revenue, and then went into teaching as a lecturer at City College Norwich.

He is best known for his Eagle series of Roman Military fiction set in the territories of the Roman Empire, covering the second invasion of Britain and the subsequent prolonged campaign undertaken by the rump of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. To date there are nine books in the series, with a 10th planned for sometime in

late 2010.

He has also begun another series, Revolution, focusing on Wellington and Napoleon, whose first title, "Youmg Bloods", was published in 2006. The second volume, 'The Generals', was released on the 31st May 2007 and the third volume 'Fire and Sword' was released in January 2009. The fourth and final novel of the series is set to be released in June 2010 and is called The Fields of Death.

In 2007 the publisher announced the intention to cease using the word "Eagle" in the title of books in this series, starting with Centurion. The change was apparently because the publisher wanted to attract more new readers to the series.

It has been announced that an independent studio is to make 2x1 hour episodes of all the Eagle novels from Under the Eagle through to The Eagle in the Sand.
