Compellingly written in Tiro’s voice, ‘Imperium’ takes us inside the violent, treacherous world of Roman politics, to describe how one man – clever, compassionate, devious, vulnerable – fought to reach the top. From the discovery of a child’s mutilated body, through judicial execution and a scandalous trial, to the brutal unleashing of the Roman mob, ‘Lustrum’ is a study in the timeless enticements and horrors of power. Riveting and tumultuous, ‘Dictator’ encompasses some of the most epic events in human history yet is also an intimate portrait of a brilliant, flawed, frequently fearful yet ultimately brave man – a hero for his time and for ours.
