Book Review: Imperium

By Robert Harris
12 CDs

I'm listening to another audio book you might enjoy, Imperium by Robert Harris.  It has great narration and a superb story about Cicero and ancient Rome.  It is my second one in this series by the author.  It is historical fiction so you are getting a dose of history as well as a very entertaining story.  It is written from the viewpoint of the lifelong friend and former slave of Cicero who was his secretary.   Though he had written a biography of Cicero it was lost with the fall of Rome, so this book is written as a novel that has some basis in historical events and people.

I love this series of books by Harris.  He's done a superb job of weaving history and fiction into a compelling story.

***** Five Stars - Highly Recommend
