I am an avid reader of, "historical/action/fiction" ; Iggilden, in my opinion, is the premier author in this genre; one who puts you directly into the heart of the historical timeframe. This book, the first of a four part series captures and holds your interest making you look anxiously forward to the following three.

Rome lives
I was suprised at how much I enjoyed the story. This is the first full length historic novel I've read and I thought it was great. Ther are some aspects of the book that may not appeal to some readers. One is the amount of violence, which occurs often but isn't overly gorey. The other aspect that I had would stub my toe on every once and a while was some of the wording or phrasing, it just didn't quit fit with the grammatic flow that was in my head.
