About this listen

From the author of Caligula comes a new stand-alone novel in the Damned Emperors series: Commodus.

AD 162. Rome is enjoying a period of stability and prosperity. The Empire's bounds are increasing, and two sons are born into the imperial succession for the first time in nearly a century. But all is not as it appears - cracks are beginning to show. The wars have rumbled on too long, and there are whispers of a sickness in the East.

Just 30 years later, the Empire will be caught up in civil war, the imperial dynasty ended and Rome burned.

One man tried to hold the fracturing state together. To Rome, he was their Emperor, their Hercules, their golden gladiator fighting off all foes, their Commodus. One woman tried to hold him together. To Commodus, she was simply Marcia.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio on our desktop site.

Very Entertaining

I really enjoyed this possible alternative take on the life of Commodus. Looking forward to reading some of Turney’s other books!

Everything! I just wish more were available on Audible in the USA!

Simon Turney’s books are so enjoyable! I’ve always been obsessed with history, but Simon makes me love it even more. I only wish all of The Damned Emperor books were available on Audible USA as I love listening to them when I’m driving, cleaning, etc.
