Thanks to his [[The Forgotten Legion by Ben Kane|The Forgotten Legion]] trilogy, Ben Kane has recently bought Roman times to life in me far more than history and Latin lessons at school ever did. Having enjoyed this first trilogy, I've been eagerly awaiting his ''Hannibal'' trilogy, since he told Bookbag about it when we [[The Interview: Bookbag Talks To Ben Kane|interviewed him]]. Finally, the wait is over and ''Hannibal: Enemy of Rome'' is here.
Bored with listening to his father argue with the elders about Hannibal's actions in Iberia, a Carthaginian youngster, Hanno, instead goes fishing with his friend Suni. A storm comes up and they are swept out to sea and captured by pirates. Their fathers suspect they are dead, but instead they are sold into slavery in Italy, Hanno as a household slave and Suni as a gladiator.
