"May Steven Saylor's Roman empire never fall. A modern master of
historical fiction, Saylor convincingly transports us into the
ancient world...enthralling " "--USA Today "on "Roma
"Continuing the saga begun in his "New York Times "bestselling
novel "Roma, "Steven Saylor charts the destinies of the
aristocratic Pinarius family, from the reign of Augustus to height
of Rome's empire. The Pinarii, generation after generation, are
witness to greatest empire in the ancient world and of the emperors
that ruled it--from the machinations of Tiberius and the madness of
Caligula, to the decadence of Nero and the golden age of Trajan and
Hadrian and more. "Empire "is filled with the dramatic, defining
moments of the age, including the Great Fire, the persecution of
the Christians, and the astounding opening games of the Colosseum.
But at the novel's heart are the choices and temptations faced by
each generation of the Pinarii. Steven Saylor once again brings the
ancient world to vivid life in a novel that tells the story of a
city and a people that has endured in the world's imagination like
no other.
