After years of fighting on the battlefield, Sertorius returns to the city and family he fought for, to find them far different than he remembered.
Rome, 100 B.C.
The northern menace has been annihilated. Rome has no more foes to conquer, her borders are secure. But the Republic has never been closer to collapsing.
Sertorius has returned to Rome after more than five years of fighting in the north, and Marius has plans for him. Marius has plans for all of Rome, actually. At the height of his power and with the love of the people, Marius is a few political connections away from ruling the Republic. Will the august body of the Senate be enough to stop him?
Corruption, betrayal, and violence spread throughout Rome like a fire in the Subura as Sertorius does everything in his power to maintain the peace within the Republic and within his home.
Bodies in the Tiber is the third book in the best-selling Sertorius Scrolls historical fiction series. If you like well-researched, historically accurate, pause-resisitung audiobooks than you’ll love Vincent B. Davis II’s compelling saga.
Buy Bodies in the Tiber today to delve into the depths of the cutthroat Republic of Rome.

From whence I first read/heard of the phenomenal persona that is Marius, I wanted MORE!!
There are but two writers (I have personally read/audiobook) that obliquely mentioned and/or referred to Marius.
Literally YEARS I constantly used "search" for Marius.
*HEAVENLY ANGELES SINGING*
I giddily FINALLY found "Sertorius Scrolls".
This is a piece of Ancient Roman history that is glossed over with often nothing more than a couple of sentences and at most, a paragraph.
This exceptional writer has taken on this most exciting and interesting time in Roman history and placed it in "can't wait for the next chapter, book" of this legendary hero to come to us from antiquity.
The narrator adds a dimension to the writer that brings the story into 3D perception with his sonorous baritone that grips and holds you listening to the very last period.
**Greatest modern retelling of Marius from actual Sertorius Scrolls

An absolute thriller focused on Roman politics

but towards the last 3 hours, the Narrator's breathing could be clearly heard, and you could hear him taking a deep breath, drinking what is presumably water, smacking his lips and swallowing more often. which was a bit uncomfortable to say the least, and distracted from the story at times.
Great story, narrator faltered

Told in the first person as if this were a personal memoir, the reader is able to not only be in the midst of the action as it occurs but also enter into the emotions of the man relating, his character, love, hopes, fear and anger clearly revealed. The inner workings of this turbulent time is clearly revealed. Narration by Joshua Saxon further enhances this experience of living with Quintus: his reading is immaculate with perfect pace and good modulation, his R.P.English accented voice fitting perfectly with the character. Only at one point late in the story does his perfect identification with Quintus falter briefly, but this is quickly resolved. Overall, a very fine performance.
The change of outlook from military to political action makes For a slightly slower pace than the earlier books, but no less intense in the happenings. For some reason, however, my audio version of Bodies in the Tiber did not include the very interesting glossary at the end of the ebook, nor the Epilogue, which concludes this part of the Sertorius story. Given a continuation with a fourth book, seems most unfortunate.
A very enjoyable book for all with an interest in pre Empire history of Ancient Rome and one which can be read as a stand alone. Highly recommended.
"No sacrifice too costly."
