K. Bell, UK : I really enjoyed this book; the story of Caesar's life is revealed mainly through fast-paced dialogue. I soon became immersed in the period. A list of terms and geographical locations was helpful.  Now I want to learn more about this amazing man. Highly recommended!

W.B., Scotland : A tremendous amount of research has gone into this book and the author takes us back in time with accuracy to detail and her descriptive writing.

P. M., Ontario : The author's meticulous research and love of Roman history makes this book a must read. The story is accurately set and fast-paced, with great dialogue. Excellent!

T.H., Netherlands : Don’t miss this pearl! Throughout  history, efforts have been made to probe the many facets of Gaius Julius Caesar’s personality, of which the shortest possible summary is in Luciano Canfora’s book ‘Caesar, The Democratic Dictator.’ In her fascinating novel, Patricia Hunter has managed to solve the paradox by giving us a broad, insightful look into the depths of the heart and mind of this versatile colossus. In an extremely well-documented way, she treats all relevant sources about Caesar’s life and times. Her novel matches the scholarly biographies of Christian Meier, Arthur Kahn and Adrian Goldsworthy. For example, her handling of the murky Bona Dea scandal is absolutely brilliant. Highly recommended.

Claudine, Florida :  This novel is a wonderful read - with the characters, especially Caesar, and situations rich with detail and meaning. History buffs and Caesar aficionados will enjoy it page after page. Highly recommended! Great job, Pat Hunter.
