Adrian Goldsworthy - City of Victory [Lagus]
Book 1 - City of Victory - The Fort [Lagus]
2021: “AD 105: Dacia
The Dacian kingdom and Rome are at peace, but no one thinks that it will last. Sent to command an isolated fort beyond the Danube, centurion Flavius Ferox can sense that war is coming but also knows that enemies may be closer to home.
Many of the Brigantes under his command are former rebels and convicts, as likely to kill him as obey an order. And then there is Hadrian, the emperor’s cousin, and a man with plans of his own.”
Book 2 - City of Victory - The City [Lagus]
2022: “AD 114: NICOPOLIS
In the depths of the desert on the empire’s Eastern Frontier, the Roman army lays siege to the city of Nicopolis.
Estranged from his beloved Enica to keep her safe, centurion Flavius Ferox has secured his freedom after being framed once again. His next quest: to uncover traitors within the Roman ranks.
As the siege builds, widespread corruption seethes and soldiers are murdered in cold blood. Meanwhile, Ferox’s investigation brings him closer and closer to the imperial court, and uncovers connections to Hadrian himself…”
Enjöy,
Lagus

Classical.

Thank you for this.
Fiction may not be Goldsworthy’s strength, but at least he knows what ‘decimate’ means.
@Lagus
Here’s another challenge:
Colleen McCullough - Masters of Rome series
June 1st, 2023
So do I! “Decimated” definitively describes the feeling you experience when you lose one tenth of your income (or latifundium). So does “gutted” & “despoiled.”
Colleen McCullough’s great Masters of Rome might still be actively available here: https://audiobookbay.lu/abs/masters-of-rome-complete-collection-colleen-mccullough-22622/

caesar963,
Thankfully, that torrent still lives.
I’ve listened to it long ago, but I remember the audio quality isn’t the best.
Anyway, repetitio est mater …
June 1st, 2023
Repetition is indeed a mutha.
There might be better audio quality about now, right enough.
June 1st, 2023
Many thanks Lagus :-)
Looking forward to it

@opacupa: If you fail to get Masters of Rome, give me a heads up. I have them as well
June 1st, 2023
What are the best Rome/Greece historical fiction books, in yall’s opinion? Aside from Masters of Rome, which always gets mentioned.
June 1st, 2023
@ehead, m’boy - Marguerite Yourcenar’s Memoirs of Hadrian; Robt Graves’ I, Claudius, Claudius the God & Count Belisarius; Augustus by John Williams; The Kingdom of the Wicked by Anthony Burgess (for the hell of it); Mary Renault has a collection of novels abt Ancient Greece (on Theseus, Socrates, Plato, Alex the Great, & others); Tom Holland’s factual Rubicon reads like a page-turning thriller.
I’m trying to remember more recent bks, the others will undoubtedly know more. There’s Steven Pressfield’s Gates of Fire, and Tides of War: A Novel of Alcibiades and the Peloponnesian War, and The Afghan Campaign (Alex the Great again).
June 1st, 2023
Thanks! That John Williams book looks great. I read Holland’s books and loved them. Read I, Claudius but none of the others. Mary Renault has been on my list for a while now.
June 1st, 2023
I also recall enjoying Robt Harris’ “Pompeii” - but I can’t remember what happens; some kind of McGuffin around a tornado, a hurricane, or just some very strong language? Anyway, the story really erupted in the telling.
I haven’t read/listened to his books on my old pal, Cicero.
It’s worthwhile your continuing with Claudius the God. I wish I hadn’t read those bks so I could read them afresh (I’ll just have to wait for a bout of amnesia, like in a soap opera).
Mary Renault can be a bit slow at times, but definitely rewarding.
Going back a bit farther in history, don’t forget (if you haven’t already read him) the great Finnish author, Mika Waltari, and his “The Etruscan & The Egyptian.
June 1st, 2023
(Those are two separate Waltari books, of course.)
June 2nd, 2023
thanks

caesar963 mentioned pretty much all of the excellent Rome Hist.Fict. It will yield 200-300h listening hours, and that should be enough to develop further taste.
Nearly everything else is much thinner.
Here are a few exhaustive lists:

Thx for those links, opacupa. Lindsey Davis’ Falco books are also worth a mention. Although it’s off topic, I’m currently really into “Rebels and Traitors,” her book set during the English Civil War.
July 20th, 2023
Yep, i’m working my way through the Didius Falco books just now, (reading) they’re well worth it, especially if you like a good dose of tounge in cheek humour thrown in.
