Who was the man that would become Caesar's lieutenant, Brutus' rival, Cleopatra's lover, and Octavian's enemy?

When his stepfather is executed for his involvement in the Catilinarian conspiracy, Mark Antony and his family are disgraced. His adolescence is marked by scandal and mischief, his love affairs are fleeting, and yet, his ambition is vast.

Antony's path to prosperity leads him to an education in Athens, a campaign for a seat in the Senate, and a position of military command. Undeterred by his baptism of fire on the battlefields of Judaea and Egypt, he climbs the ranks to become the right-hand man of Rome’s most famous general, Julius Caesar.

The first of an epic new four-book series, Caesar’s Soldier brings to life the world of one of history’s greatest warriors and romantics, as he becomes an integral part of the Roman Republic in its moment of glory and crisis. Perfect for fans of Conn Iggulden and Bernard Cornwell.

Alex Gough is an author of Roman historical adventures. The Carbo Chronicles, including Watchmen of Rome and Bandits of Rome, was written as a result of a lifelong obsession with ancient Rome, and the culmination of a lot of research into the underclasses of the time.

We finally have a story from his point of view, excellently, written, of course. And the narration is superb. The story doesn’t get slow and is gives us an insight into the historical events that happened during his time.

Excellent point of view from one of our favorite scoundrels in history.

I really like the subject of the book and as much as I found the narration very captivating, the writing itself could be better. The female characters are very stereotypically described and announced, and on top of that there are rarely any cases in which the author decides to paint a clear picture of the scenery. The book is narration-heavy and I found myself admiring not just the voice work, but also the audio quality. 5.5/10

Great narration, mediocre writing
