Reviews
YA-A fascinating and enlightening piece of historical fiction that centers around Julius Caesar's rise to power. Through the voice of Marcus Caelius Rufus, a Roman commander during the civil war between Pompey and Caesar, Jaro fuses many elements of the times into a coherent account. Caelius attempts to sort out his allegiances through writing in a journal as he awaits an inevitable attack. Through flashbacks, readers see him coming of age, rising to a position of respect, commanding an army, and ultimately wavering on which side to support. The oratorical powers of Cicero, the military triumphs of Pompey the Great, and the ambitions of Caesar are all conveyed. The decadence that led to the fall of Rome comes through, as does the spirit of the times. YAs are sure to appreciate this look at the human side of this period in history.-Diane Goheen, Topeka West High School, KS
