About the Book

Julius Caesar comes into his own as a man, warrior, senator, husband, and leader in this stunning novel of Ancient Rome, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Emperor: The Gates of Rome. “Utterly marvelous . . . Historical fiction of the highest order . . . [brings] Julius Caesar to life in a truly magical, electrifying way.”—Toronto Telegram In a sparsely settled region of North Africa, a band of disheveled soldiers turn their eyes toward one man among them: their leader, Julius Caesar. The soldiers are Roman legionaries. And their quarry is a band of pirates who dared to kidnap Julius Caesar for ransom. Now, as Caesar exacts his revenge and builds a legend far from Rome, his friend Marcus Brutus is fighting battles of another sort, rising to power in the wake of the assassination of a dictator. Once Brutus and Caesar were as close as brothers, devoted to the same ideals and attracted to the same forbidden woman. Now they will be united again by a shock wave from the north, where a gladiator named Spartacus is building an army of seventy thousand slaves—to fight a cataclysmic battle against Rome itself.   Filled with unforgettable images—from the death throes of a king to the birth of Caesar’s child, from the bloody battlefields of Greece to the silent passion of lovers—Emperor: The Death of Kings is an astounding work, an extraordinary blend of vibrant history and thrilling fiction.   Ancient Rome comes to vivid life in Conn Iggulden’s Emperor series: THE GATES OF ROME • THE DEATH OF KINGS • THE FIELD OF SWORDS • THE GODS OF WAR • THE BLOOD OF GODS

Review :
Praise for the Emperor series “What Robert Graves did for Claudius, Conn Iggulden now does for the most famous Roman Emperor of them all—Julius Caesar.”—William Bernhardt, author of Criminal Intent “Stunning. It begins with hints of a mystery and continues as a galvanizing historical thriller. Words like ‘brilliant,’ ‘sumptuous’ and ‘enchanting’ jostle to be used but scarcely convey the way Iggulden brings the tale to life, or the compelling depictions of battle, treachery, and everyday detail in a precarious world vividly re-created.... Exhilarating.”—Los Angeles Times “Dramatic historical fiction to keep adults turning pages like enthralled kids. Iggulden is a grand storyteller. . . . A spirited, entertaining read.”—USA Today “What a find . . . A breathtaking journey through ancient Rome . . . Emperor combines the fantasy of Harry Potter with the historical details of John Jakes. Books don’t get better than this.”—Contra Costa Times “People who are interested in history . . . will certainly find this novel engrossing.”—Albuquerque Journal   “He excels at describing battle scenes both small-scale and epic.”—The Seattle Times “Utterly marvelous . . . Historical fiction of the highest order. Solid research and a real knack for character development bring Julius Caesar to life in a truly magical, electrifying way.”—Toronto Telegram   “An intensely readable story.”—Calgary Sun “Historical fiction at its best . . . The Gates of Rome will keep you on the edge of your seat!”—Aromas Tri-County News   “I loved it. It is one of the best historical novels I have read. . . . Iggulden has the skills of a bestseller writer.”—Historical Novels Review
