McCullough has triumphed again' -- Chicago Tribune 'Intrigue, political manoeuvring, grandstanding, gossip, sex, both affectionate and calculated, and wholesale slaughter... McCullough works to charge history with the current of personality.' -- Booklist 'A really engrossing read' -- ***** Reader review 'A masterpiece' -- ***** Reader review 'In a peerless class of its own' -- ***** Reader review 'Entertaining and engrossing' -- ***** Reader review ***************************************************** Rome, 48 BC: Julius Caesar is in the prime of his life and at the height of his powers.
