A review by jdromsky
Emperor: the Gates of Rome by Conn Iggulden

adventurous informative inspiring tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

I love how Ingaulden
keeps Giaus’s and Marcus’s full names of Julius Caesar and Marcus Brutus from the audience.
it allows the audience to get much more attached to the boys as characters, helping to humanize their deeds. 

I am looking forward to the other books in this series!
