Maps on endpapers. Illustrated with B&W portraits and maps by the author. Includes extensive Glossary. This is the sixth volume in Colleen McCullough's massive Roman epic "The Masters of Rome" a life of Gaius Julius Caesar covering not only his career but also the periods immediately before and after Caesar. McCullough's seven books in her "Masters of Rome" series are perhaps the finest historical novels based on Roman history that have ever been produced and provide the reader with unequalled absorption into Roman life suspense excitement and minutely accurate Roman history. In this sixth volume Gaius Julius Caesar is at the height of his stupendous career. When he becomes embroiled in a civil war between Egypt's King Ptolemy and Queen Cleopatra he finds himself torn between the fascinations of a remarkable woman and his duty as a Roman. Though he must leave Cleopatra she remains a force in his life as a lover and as the mother of his only son. Caesar now dictator of Rome is determined not to be worshipped as a god nor to be crowned king but his unique circumstances make it appear otherwise. Caesar's enemies masquerading as friends plot to destroy him. Among these traitors are his cousin Marc Antony the jealous Gaius Cassius and his long-time mistress Servilia's son Marcus Brutus. All of them owe everything to Caesar and all betray him. With her extraordinary knowledge of Roman history Colleen McCullough brings Caesar to life as no one has ever done before. She surrounds him with an enormous and vivid cast of historical characters characters like Cleopatra who call to us from beyond the centuries for McCullough's genius is to make them live again. "The October Horse" brings to life the passion genius and tragedy of an incomparable man. McCullough's seven books in her Masters of Rome series include: "The First Man in Rome" 1990; "The Grass Crown" 1991; "Fortune's Favorites" 1993; "Caesar's Women" 1996; "Caesar" 1997; "The October Horse" 2002; and "Antony and Cleopatra" 2007. .
