It is AD 59. Boudicca, flame-haired queen of the Iceni tribe, is on the warpath. Her husband ruled their ancient lands, but now he is dead. Hungry for power, the Romans want the land for themselves, and blood will be spilled. When Boudicca comes to her village, Tara ('Little Flame') wonders who is more terrifying - the warrior queen or the Roman soldiers. Yet, young as she is, Little Flame proves her courage...It is complete with a timeline and a glossary.
