Review title: A Roman Epic
Product review: I started this book not knowing that Colleen McCullough had written others before it. I was a little lost and I even studied Classical history and Latin in college. If you don't know much about this time period I suggest you read a short bio of Caesar's life. It will probably keep you from getting too confused. But remember this no reflection on the fabulous writing, it is in the nature of writing about ancient Rome where it seems every one had the same name.I found this novel very engrossing. It was very long and felt it, but there wasn't a part of the book that I didn't enjoy reading. I will gladly read more in the series. This segment of the story follows Caesar from the death of his daughter and the occupation of Britian to just before his rise to Imperator. The conquest of Gaul is fascinating. Colleen McCullough opens a window into the mind of a genius.Overall a very good read. One I would recommend to anyone who likes studying the ancient world.
