Title: A worthy addition to a great series
Product review: If anyone had told me a year ago that I would be hooked on series about ancient Rome, I would have thought they were crazy. I've never been a big fan of Roman history or culture; I always thought of them as highly overrated. Well, this series is changing my mind. All of these books completely immerse the reader in a world separated by ours by two millenia, but I for one was amazed by how many things haven't changed. I didn't think this book was quite as good as the ones before, perhaps because I didn't find Caesar as interesting as I did Sulla or Marius (I did read McCullough's disclaimer about Caesar's intelligence, looks and physical prowess, but I still find him a little too good to be true). I'm currently halfway through "Caesar's Women" and can't wait for "Caesar".
