Title: Historical Fiction At Its Finest
Product review: This series of books has been the best reading experience I've had since Michener. Ms. McCullough's research is impeccable and the plot moves along at a furious speed. The characters themselves are great, forcing you to invest time into understanding what motivates them. The 2 main characters of Gaius Marius and Lucius Cornelius are so well-crafted that one feels an immediate bond with them. Of all the books in this series, the first two are the best. As the author inevitably moves on to the great Ceasar, the books get bogged down. However, I would recommend all of them to anyone interested in good historical fiction and the history of Rome.
