Read in the style of a secret diary, this famous sequel to I, Claudius gives a wry and human view of the Roman world, bringing to life some of the most scandalous and violent times in history.
Claudius has survived the murderous intrigues of his predecessors to become, reluctantly, Emperor of Rome. He recounts his surprisingly successful rule; how he cultivates loyalty of the army to repair the damage caused by his nephew Caligula; his friendship with the Jewish King Herod Agrippa; and his invasion of Britain. Yet beneath the surface Claudius' good fortune is under threat. With the growing paranoia of absolute power, and his young wife Messalina causing trouble, how long can Claudius survive?

Sir Derek Jacobi narrates; the only true voice of Claudius, having played him in the 1976 BBC series. Jacobi is a beloved stage and screen actor.

‘I, Claudius’ was absolutely amazing, and an understandable classic. This follow up kept the tempo, spirit, humor, and history which made the first so compelling. I wish Robert Graves made more of this style of writing, it’s as human and historic as can be, yet still massively entertaining. Robert takes some creative liberties to fill gaps or what he himself suspect for entertainment purposes, but he never takes it too far and it just seems natural.

An understandable classic.

The Emperor's life continues, if it is at all possible this book is even better than the first. I spent a lot of time listening to this book , when I should have been asleep. However it wasn't a waste of my time, not in the slightest.

If you, like me, were disturbed and intrigued by the television programme I Claudius I recommend this audio book. Narrated by Claudius himself, the delivery is perfect.

Amazing book and performance
