Synopsis

In the third book of the critically acclaimed Marching With Caesar series, Titus Pullus and his friends in the 10th Legion are called on to serve as the agents of change as their general, Gaius Julius Caesar singlehandedly changes the Roman Republic to Empire. From Spain and the dusty plains of Pharsalus, to the streets of Rome itself, Titus must survive the battlefield and navigate the treacherous world of Roman politics as he rises through the ranks. Helping Titus are his surviving tentmates, including his best friend Vibius Domitius, but like the rest of the Republic, their friendship is tested by the strife and fratricide that comes with civil war. At the same time, Titus has to deal with the challenges that have confronted career military members throughout the ages as he tries to balance the demands and heartache created by the long absences from his young family. Nevertheless, through it all Titus and the men of the 10th Legion continue Marching With Caesar.

About this title

Review:

Fans of R. W. Peake's densely-packed, gripping first novelMarching with Caesar: Conquest of Gaul will be overjoyed to find now its sequel, Marching with Caesar: Civil War.  
Peake....charges his narrative with huge amounts of historical detail...and yet makes it all work so smoothly that the reader turns the pages eagerly. There's history here, and character, and action enough for three novels, and all of it can be enjoyed even if readers haven't seen the first volume yet.
Very highly recommended.
