From the author of the bestselling "The Dangerous Book for Boys
The acclaimed author of Emperor: The Gates of Rome returns to the
extraordinary life of Julius Caesar in a new novel that takes us
further down the path to glory . . . as Caesar comes into his own
as a man, warrior, senator, husband, leader."
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.
