Wonderful! Rome bought back to life.
Robert graves, i Claudius are classics. These books should also be. Why they are not on tv or film yet amazes me. Its obvious that Harry Sidebottom knows his Roman history. in the physical copy you get many Roman and Latin descriptors which i find fascinating.
In this audio book the narration is first class too, although a little loud shouting various Military commands sometimes but that's ok. Plus when was the last time you got a map in a book ? Excellent.
Its gruesome, muddy and imperious

Don't waste your time !
The Characters lacked formed story lines so that you neither cared or believed in their lives- pointless!
Having read all the other books very disappointed.
Front bottom !
