About this listen

"Whom the Gods would Destroy, they first make mad."

Rome - 97 BC. Quintus Sertorius is now serving as a legate in Greece. It's supposed to be a peacetime mission, but quickly Sertorius discovers there is more happening beneath the peaceful veneer of democracy's birthplace. Roman citizens are disappearing. Whispers are spreading that there is a force operating in the shadows bent on Rome's destruction.

Sertorius and his companions are determined to find out who is behind all this, but quickly the enemy is on the offense. Friends disappear. Attacks in the night. Blood in the streets. Sertorius must stop at nothing to snuff out this grand conspiracy before it engulfs the Republic in flames.

Great Except For One Thing........

The story idea is great. Narrator is pretty good--a little too much in the dramatic pauses at times.

My only complaint about the Sertorius scrolls is the incredible amount of time spent by the author on the angst of the main character.

I understand that the internal reflections of the character are integral to the story BUT when it is so drawn out as to affect the narrative flow it becomes a bit too much.

With that off my chest it won't stop me from listening to the remainder of the scrolls as I'm too engaged now to stop. I'll just have to speed through the over dramatic self reflections.

Greatest modern retelling of Marius from actual Sertorius Scrolls

I am an AVID ancient Roman history buff.
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

MIND BLOWING!

Vincent B Davis knocked this one out of the park. I was hooked from the first paragraph. Joshua Saxon's narration made me feel every emotion as if I were with each character. watching the story unfold. hands down the best story in the series so far. I will be eagerly awaiting the next book.

Drama, treachery, battles….It’s all there!

Book 4 of the series was just as engaging as the previous three books with many new twists and turns that had me not want to stop listening to it. Thoroughly enjoyed it and the time I’ve invested listening to all four books!

So-so story

Not as good as the first three. Story seemed dragged out and gloomy. Too moralistic at times. I’m hoping the next book with Sulla is more interesting.
