Imperium: A Novel of Ancient Rome by Robert Harris

5.0

This is the first Robert Harris novel I have read, and will certainly not be the last. He has written a detailed political drama that is deep, passionate, and full of strange and intriguing characters, most of whom actually existed! From great generals to grand orators Robert gives them all sufficient screen time and the story is driven forward with wonderful twists and turns. And it's the first in a trilogy; I cannot wait to read the rest of them. Exceptional.
