1. The captive Celt -- 2. The grim ghost -- 3. The goose guards -- 4. The fatal fire.
Read by Toby Longworth.
Four exciting, funny ancient Roman stories about children who could have lived at the time. 'The Captive Celt' is the story of Deri, a Celt who faces execution for criticising Rome. Deri's cellmate is a British chief who believes there is a way to save both their skins. 'The Grim Ghost' sees Pliny's household preparing for a feast. Pliny tells his young serving boy the tale of a terrifying ghost that haunted a garden. But there's no truth in ghost stories – or is there? In 'The Goose Guards' Rome is under attack from the vicious Gauls and the barbarian army is now preparing to besiege the Temple of Juno on Capitol Hill, home of Brutus, a trainee priest. Finally, 'The Fatal Fire' sees Mary the Christian slave girl in danger when she is the only witness to a terrible crime.
