Reviews

"Delightfully entertaining historical fiction." - Booklist "Iggulden is a grand storyteller." - USA Today, "Delightfully entertaining historical fiction." -Booklist "Iggulden is a grand storyteller." -USA Today, Praise for the Emperor series "What Robert Graves did for Claudius, Conn Iggulden now does for the most famous Roman Emperor of them all--Julius Caesar." --William Bernhardt, author of Criminal Intent "Stunning. It begins with hints of a mystery and continues as a galvanizing historical thriller. Words like 'brilliant,' 'sumptuous' and 'enchanting' jostle to be used but scarcely convey the way Iggulden brings the tale to life, or the compelling depictions of battle, treachery, and everyday detail in a precarious world vividly re-created. . . . Exhilarating." -- Los Angeles Times "Dramatic historical fiction to keep adults turning pages like enthralled kids. Iggulden is a grand storyteller. . . . A spirited, entertaining read." -- USA Today "What a find . . . A breathtaking journey through ancient Rome . . . Emperor combines the fantasy of Harry Potter with the historical details of John Jakes. Books don't get better than this." -- Contra Costa Times "People who are interested in history . . . will certainly find this novel engrossing." -- Albuquerque Journal "He excels at describing battle scenes both small-scale and epic." -- The Seattle Times "Utterly marvelous . . . Historical fiction of the highest order. Solid research and a real knack for character development bring Julius Caesar to life in a truly magical, electrifying way." -- Toronto Telegram "An intensely readable story." -- Calgary Sun "Historical fiction at its best . . . The Gates of Rome will keep you on the edge of your seat!" -- Aromas Tri-County News "I loved it. It is one of the best historical novels I have read. . . . Iggulden has the skills of a bestseller writer." -- Historical Novels Review
