About this listen

If you want to discover the captivating life of Tiberius, then pay attention....

Compared with the preceding rulers, Julius Caesar and Augustus, the name does not ring out with the same fame and pomposity. Shakespeare wrote no plays about Tiberius; his name does not echo in the history books with the same awe-inspiring prominence. Even his successors, Caligula and Nero, are more famous than he was. In fact, Tiberius can hardly be called famous at all. History knows him more for his infamy.

Tiberius is remembered, if he is remembered at all, for his bad behavior. He spent much of his rule on a Greek island surrounded by every pleasure that his diseased flesh could dream of, abandoning his empire to scandal and intrigue. He is a great villain of Roman history.

In Tiberius: A Captivating Guide to the Life of Ancient Rome's Second Emperor and How He Ruled the Roman Empire, you will discover topics such as:

  • Before the Emperors
  • Born into Turmoil
  • The Eye of the Emperor
  • In the Shadow of Augustus
  • First Conquest
  • Forced Marriage
  • Rock Bottom
  • Ascension
  • A Slippery Slope to Capri
  • The Last Javelin
  • And Much, Much More!

With all the scheming and over the cast of roles, it’s simple to overlook these are actual historical characters. I think it’s easy to understand book such as this when those involved do things that make it difficult for you to turn away.

Great information!

Friendly for a history. Loads of characters and gossipy details. Special leaning against Tiberius and for Germanicus.

Overall, a very interesting history audible.
