Story4.5 out of 5 stars 35
Russell Crowe's new movie, Gladiator, may make you feel like you're in ancient Rome, but it tells only part of the story. Hear from Tiberius Claudius Drusus Nero Germanicus, who was despised as a weakling and dismissed as an idiot because of his physical infirmities, but survived the intrigues and poisonings that marked the reigns of Augustus, Tiberius, and the mad Caligula to become Emperor of Rome in 41 A.D.

Great book, terrible narrator
Reviewed: 03-16-04
I love the book and really wanted to have it in audio format, but I was terribly disappointed by the slow, lifeless and pompous reading - the power of the words does come through - but such a shame that a great book can be so diminished by poor reading.

He is the scourge of Stupid White Men everywhere. He's taken on fat cats, gun nuts, lying politicians. The Guardian describes him as "a wake-up call, a kick in the mental backside". And now Michael Moore is back, daring to ask the most urgent question of these perilous times: Dude, Where's My Country?

If even 10% of what Moore says is true...

Funny but deadly serious

It is not often that something that makes you laugh out loud also makes you think. I am not sure whether I agree with it all, but I am very glad I listened.
