"Delightfully entertaining historical fiction." - Booklist "Iggulden is a grand storyteller." - USA Today From the Trade Paperback edition., "Delightfully entertaining historical fiction." -Booklist "Iggulden is a grand storyteller." -USA Today From the Trade Paperback edition., Praise for EMPEROR THE GATES OF ROME: "Emperor is stunning....Words like 'brilliant, ' 'sumptuous' and 'enchanting' jostle to be used, but scarcely convey the way Iggulden brings the schoolbook tale to life...Iggulden knows that history derives from 'story.' And this story has barely begun. The Gates of Rome is its first, exhilarating, installment. Don't miss it." --"L.A. Times "A swashbuckling adventure story...dramatic historical fiction to keep adults turning pages like enthralled kids...a spirited, entertaining read. Iggulden is a grand storyteller." --"USA Today "An absorbing portrait of ancient Roman life and history, well written and full of suspense--even for those who know the ending." --"Kirkus "Emperor rules...What a find. A first-time author who writes--wonderfully! Emperor combines the fantasy of Harry Potter with the historical details of John Jakes. Books don't get better than this." --"Contra Costa Times "Iggulden excels at describing battle scenes both small-scale and epic." --"Seattle Times

Synopsis
A clash of armies and leaders such as the world has never seen takes center stage in the third installment of Iggulden's bestselling series that captures the legend of Julius Caesar., The year is 53 B.C. Fresh from victory in Gaul, Julius Caesar leads battle-hardened legions across the Rubicon river- threatening Rome herself. Even the master strategist Pompey is caught unprepared by the strike, and forced to abandon his city. The armies of Rome will face each other at last in civil war, led by the two greatest generals ever to walk the seven hills. Thus begins Conn Iggulden' s towering saga of Julius Caesar as he approaches his final destiny-- a destiny that will be decided not by legions but by his friend Brutus and an Egyptian queen named Cleopatra, who will bear his only son.... For Caesar, the campaign against Pompey will test his military genius and his appetite for glory to their limits, as the greatest fighting machine the world has ever seen divides against itself in a bloody conflict that will set brother against brother until victory or death. But for Caesar, another kingdom beckons-- a world of ancient mysteries and languid sensuality, where a beautiful, bewitching woman waits to snare his heart. The Gods of War follows Julius Caesar through politics and passion, ruthless ambition and private grief, and into the corruption of power itself. Those he has loved will play a part in his triumphs-- as will the jealousy and hatred of his enemies. From the spectacles of the arena to the whispered lies of conspirators, Conn Iggulden brings to life a world of monumental drama. And at its heart is one extraordinary friendship-- marked by fierce loyalty and bitter betrayal, with dark events shrouded in noble ideals., A clash of armies and leaders takes center stage in the triumphant conclusion of Iggulden's bestselling series, in which the life of Julius Caesar is followed through epic rivalries, world-shattering battles, and doomed love., From the author of the bestselling The Dangerous Book for Boys The year is 53 B.C.
