Omschrijving
Julius Caesar comes into his own as a man, warrior, senator, husband, and leader in this stunning novel of Ancient Rome, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Emperor: The Gates of Rome.
"Utterly marvelous . . . Historical fiction of the highest order . . . [brings] Julius Caesar to life in a truly magical, electrifying way."--Toronto Telegram
In a sparsely settled region of North Africa, a band of disheveled soldiers turn their eyes toward one man among them: their leader, Julius Caesar. The soldiers are Roman legionaries. And their quarry is a band of pirates who dared to kidnap Julius Caesar for ransom. Now, as Caesar exacts his revenge and builds a legend far from Rome, his friend Marcus Brutus is fighting battles of another sort, rising to power in the wake of the assassination of a dictator. Once Brutus and Caesar were as close as brothers, devoted to the same ideals and attracted to the same forbidden woman. Now they will be united again by a shock wave from the north, where a gladiator named Spartacus is building an army of seventy thousand slaves--to fight a cataclysmic battle against Rome itself. Filled with unforgettable images--from the death throes of a king to the birth of Caesar's child, from the bloody battlefields of Greece to the silent passion of lovers--Emperor: The Death of Kings is an astounding work, an extraordinary blend of vibrant history and thrilling fiction. Ancient Rome comes to vivid life in Conn Iggulden's Emperor series:
THE GATES OF ROME - THE DEATH OF KINGS - THE FIELD OF SWORDS - THE GODS OF WAR - THE BLOOD OF GODS
