From the author of the bestselling The Dangerous Book for Boys With his acclaimed Emperor novels, author Conn Iggulden brings a dazzling world to life–the rich, complex world of ancient Rome as seen through the eyes of one extraordinary man: Julius Caesar. Now Iggulden returns to the story of Julius Caesar and a realm that stretches from the sands of North Africa to the coast of Britain. Against this magnificent backdrop, Caesar, his first victories under his belt and a series of key alliances in place, makes his move toward power and glory–and commands his famous legions on one of history’s bloodiest and most daring military campaigns. It is the heart of the first century B.C. For Julius Caesar, the time has come to enter the treacherous political battleground that has become Rome. Having proved his valor in the slaves’ revolt, Caesar is strengthened by the love and vision of a beautiful older woman, and by the sword of his loyal friend, Marcus Brutus. And when he is appointed to a new position of power, Caesar manages to do what none of the other great figures of his time could: capture the hearts of the Roman people themselves. Crushing a rebellion, bringing order to the teeming city, Caesar then makes the move that will change history. He leaves Rome for the foothills of the Alps. And with an army made in his own image, he begins a daring charge through Gaul, across the English Channel, and to the wilds of tribal Britain. Here, in a series of cataclysmic clashes, the legend of Julius Caesar will be forged. And while Caesar and Brutus pit their lives–and those of their men–against the armies of the wilderness, their political adversaries in Rome grow at once more fearful and more formidable. So when the fighting at the dominion’s edge is over, the greatest danger to Julius Caesar will await him on the Tiber–with a man who wants Rome himself. From the clash of armies to the heat of a woman’s seduction, from the thunder of battle to the orgies of pleasure and plunder that follow in a warrior’s wake, Emperor: The Field of Swords captures in riveting detail a world being shaped by a brilliant civilization. And in this extraordinary novel, the fate of Rome is being driven by the ambitions of a single man. A man with an unmatched genius for power.

"From the author of Rice and Raise the Red Lantern comes a story about a pampered and naive fourteen-year-old prince who, after the sudden death of his father, finds himself in the unlikely position of lord and ruler over an entire nation. A boy of few talents and limited interests, he grows drunk on his own power and delights in wielding an iron fist with his subjects. Circumstances soon force him to venture beyond the palace walls, and what he encounters there sets the stage for the events that ultimately shatter the young emperor and his empire." "Narrated in retrospect by the ex-sovereign, My Life as Emperor is a tale of cruelty and decadence, of concubines and eunuchs, of lethal sibling rivalries and intrigue. My Life as Emperor is not only a glimpse into the soul of China, it is a story of power and corruption."--BOOK JACKET.

'Masterly' - Robert Harris, author of Imperium 'Essential reading for anyone interested in Ancient Rome' Independent ***** Caesar Augustus schemed and fought his way to absolute power. He became Rome's first emperor and ruled for forty-four years before dying peacefully in his bed. The system he created would endure for centuries. Yet, despite his exceptional success, he is a difficult man to pin down, and far less well-known than his great-uncle, Julius Caesar. His story is not always edifying: he murdered his opponents, exiled his daughter when she failed to conform and freely made and broke alliances as he climbed ever higher. However, the peace and stability he fostered were real, and under his rule the empire prospered. Adrian Goldsworthy examines the ancient sources to understand the man and his times.

The Author and the Emperor is the parallel story of an aspiring New York based writer, and his namesake, the great Emperor Kanishka, who in the second century ruled over a vast empire stretching from the river Syr Daria in Central Asia to the Gangetic delta. More questions remain than answers are found in historical texts about Emperor Kanishka. Why did the Emperor forsake the Kadphises surname after the death of his father, Vima Kadphises? We know of his successors; but not about his wives. His headless statue, preserved in Mathura Museum, asks. "How did he die?" A palace conspiracy? A spurned wife? I patched the gap in historical data with plausible fiction. Our present-day author Kanishka is born in Mathura, India, the emperor's second capital. "He will become a great writer," says his father who moves with his teenage son to New York City. After his father's death, Kanishka drives a cab to support his mother and himself. Disheartened by his failure to succeed as an author, he faces another crisis when his disillusioned wife leaves him. Kanishka makes a snap decision to trace the footsteps of his illustrious namesake. During a perilous soul-searching journey, he is held hostage in Pakistan. After months in captivity, Kanishka makes a dramatic escape across the India-Pak border. Does the author find fulfillment? Who are Holly, Mariah and Daisy...

From the author of the bestselling The Dangerous Book for Boys The acclaimed author of Emperor: The Gates of Rome returns to the extraordinary life of Julius Caesar in a new novel that takes us further down the path to glory . . . as Caesar comes into his own as a man, warrior, senator, husband, leader. In a sparsely settled region of North Africa, a band of disheveled soldiers turn their eyes toward one man among them: their leader, Julius Caesar. The soldiers are Roman legionaries. And their quarry is a band of pirates who dared to kidnap Julius Caesar for ransom. Now, as Caesar exacts his revenge and builds a legend far from Rome, his friend Marcus Brutus is fighting battles of another sort, rising to power in the wake of the assassination of a dictator. Once Brutus and Caesar were as close as brothers, devoted to the same ideals and attracted to the same forbidden woman. Now they will be united again by a shock wave from the north, where a gladiator named Spartacus is building an army of seventy thousand slaves—to fight a cataclysmic battle against Rome itself.
