Caesar Dies - Talbot Mundy - Bog

Set during the reign of the Emperor Commodus, here is Talbot Mundy's tale of palace intrigue, the brutalities and debaucheries of Rome, and a man who would make himself ruler of the civilized world. Commodus is the warrior-emperor with all of ancient Rome and Antioch at his feet. Still, he disguises himself as a gladiator and enters the games, distinguishing himself as a Roman Hercules. Intrigue, poisonings, and gladitorial games at their most blood-thirsty make this a tale of high excitement.
