“ Posteguillo shows just how thrilling a historical novel can be. ” ― El Paí s
Every legend has a beginning . . .
Rome, 77 B. C. The corrupt Senator Dolabella is about to go on trial for his crimes.
But Dolabella owns the jury. He’ s hired the best lawyers in the city. And he’ s very willing to use violence against those who oppose him.
In all of Rome, no man dares accept the role of prosecutor— until, against all odds, an unknown twenty-three-year-old steps out to lead the case, defend the people of the city, and defy the power of the ruling elite.
That lawyer’ s name is Gaius Julius Caesar.
So begins Santiago Posteguillo’ s acclaimed masterpiece of historical fiction― a tale as epic as Caesar’ s life itself. An irresistible page-turning novel of politics and betrayal, grand battles and impossible odds, shocking villainy and even greater acts of courage, I Am Rome brilliantly animates the moments that shaped this extraordinary young man’ s fate— and in so doing, changed the course of history itself.
