Review
"An instant classic of the genre. No historian knows more about the Roman army than Adrian Goldsworthy, and no novelist better recreates the Classical World. Flavius Ferox, Briton turned Roman Centurion is a wonderful, charismatic hero. Action and authenticity combine in a thrilling and engrossing novel." —Harry Sidebottom, author, Fire and Sword
"An authoritative and exciting portrait not only of Caesar but of the complex society in which he lived."—New York Times Book Review on Caesar: Life of a Colossus
