Conn Iggulden
The third volume of the "Emperor" series continues the story of the famous Roman: after forming a triumvirate with the leader Pompey and the financier Crassus, Caesar receives the governorship of Gaul – and there he spreads the wings of his political and military genius. He conquers the entire region, brutally suppressing the uprising led by Vercingetorix, and stands at the Rubicon.
Iggulden masterfully combines historical knowledge with an adventurous thread, making historical figures come alive as real people – they experience fear on the streets of a terrorized Rome, engage in political games in the Senate, love and hate, fight in the mud of Gaul for their beloved leader, and perish on ships tossed by storms off the coast of Britain...
The author paints a vivid picture of the Roman world of that time, which is not so different from the modern world.
