The Field of Swords
Condition: Adventurer’s Companion
Sizes: Small Paperback (11 cm x 18 cm)
Emperor: Book 3
Book Blurb
The third volume of the Imperator series is filled with the further history of the famous Roman: after forming a triumvirate with the general Pompey and the financier Crassus, Caesar receives the governorship of Gaul - and there he spreads the wings of his political and military genius. He conquers it all, bloodily suppressing the uprising led by Vercingetorix, and stands on the Rubicon.
Iggulden brilliantly combines historical knowledge with an adventure plot, thanks to which the characters known from the pages of history become people of flesh and blood - they experience fear on the streets of terrorized Rome, play political games in the senate, love and hate each other, fight in the mud of Gaul for their beloved leader, die on ships tossed by storms off the coast of Britain...
The author paints a vivid picture of the Roman world of that time, which is not really much different from today.
