Paperback. Etat : Good. A "brilliant" (Los Angeles Times) novel of ancient Rome--a realm of tyrants and slaves, of dark intrigues and seething passions--and the early years of Julius Caesar, the man who would become the most powerful ruler on Earth "An absorbing portrait of ancient Roman life and history, well written and full of suspense--even for those who know the ending."--Kirkus Reviews In a city of grandeur and decadence, beauty, and bloodshed, two boys, best friends, dream of glory in service of the mightiest empire the world has ever known. One is the son of a senator. The other is a bastard child. As young Gaius and Marcus grow to manhood, they are trained in the art of combat--under the tutelage of one of Rome's most fearsome gladiators. For Marcus, a bloody campaign in Greece will become a young soldier's proving ground. For Gaius, the equally deadly infighting of the Roman Senate will be the battlefield where he hones his courage and skill. And for both, the love of an extraordinary slave girl will be an honor each will covet but only one will win. But as Rome is thrust into the grip of bitter conflict, as every Roman prepares to take sides in the coming battle, Gaius and Marcus's friendship will be put to the ultimate test. . . .    With Emperor: The Gates of Rome, Conn Iggulden presents a grand romantic tale of coming-of-age in the Roman Empire and a vibrant portrait of the early years of a man who would become one of the most influential rulers in ancient history: Julius Caesar.   Ancient Rome comes to vivid life in Conn Iggulden's Emperor series: THE GATES OF ROME * THE DEATH OF KINGS * THE FIELD OF SWORDS * THE GODS OF WAR * THE BLOOD OF GODS.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. The first book in #1 New York Times-bestselling author Conn Iggulden's brilliant new historical series about two families that plunged England into a devastating, decades-long civil war. In 1437, the Lancaster king Henry VI ascends the throne of England after years of semi-peaceful regency. Named "The Lamb," Henry is famed more for his gentle and pious nature than his father's famous battlefield exploits; already, his dependence on his closest men has stirred whispers of weakness at court.             A secret truce negotiated with France to trade British territories for a royal bride--Margaret of Anjou--sparks revolts across English territory. The rival royal line, the House of York, sees the chaos brought on by Henry's weakness and with it the opportunity to oust an ineffectual king.   As storm clouds gather over England, King Henry and his supporters find themselves besieged abroad and at home. Who or what can save the kingdom before it is too late?   "It's been said that Game of Thrones is the Wars of the Roses written as fantasy: this is the real thing, more glorious [and] more passionate."--M. C. Scott, author of Rome: The Emperor's Spy "Capturing the.violence and romance of medieval life, Iggulden makes real those grand characters who live in the collective memory."--Kirkus Reviews   "Great pacing, fascinating people, and vibrant descriptions make this a must read!"--Historical Novel Review.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. For centuries, primitive tribes have warred with one another. Now, under Genghis Khan--a man who lives for battle and blood--they have united as one nation, overcoming moats, barriers, deceptions, and superior firepower only to face the ultimate test of all: the great, slumbering walled empire of the Chin. Genghis Khan comes from over the horizon, a single Mongol warrior surrounded by his brothers, sons, and fellow tribesmen. With each battle his legend grows and the ranks of his horsemen swell, as does his ambition. In the city of Yenking--modern-day Beijing--the Chin will make their final stand, confident behind their towering walls, setting a trap for the Mongol raiders. But Genghis will strike with breathtaking audacity, never ceasing until the emperor himself is forced to kneel. …

Paperback. Etat : Fair. Julius Caesar's final destiny will be decided not by legions, but by his friend Brutus and a bewitching Egyptian queen named Cleopatra in this thrilling novel of Ancient Rome from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Emperor: The Gates of Rome. "Delightfully entertaining historical fiction."--Booklist   53 B.C.: Fresh from victory in Gaul, Julius Caesar leads battle-hardened legions across the Rubicon river--threatening Rome herself. Even the master strategist Pompey is caught unprepared by the strike and forced to abandon his city. The armies of Rome are poised to face each other at last in civil war, led by the two greatest generals ever to walk the seven hills.   For Caesar, the campaign against Pompey will test his military genius and his appetite for glory as the greatest fighting machine the world has ever seen divides against itself in a bloody conflict that sets brother against brother until victory or death. But another kingdom beckons--a world of ancient mysteries and languid sensuality, where a beautiful, bewitching woman waits to snare Caesar's heart. From the spectacles of the arena to the whispered lies of conspirators, Emperor: The Gods of War brings to life a world of monumental drama: of politics and passion, ruthless ambition and private grief, and the corruption of power itself. And at its heart is one extraordinary friendship--marked by fierce loyalty and bitter betrayal, with dark events shrouded in noble ideals.   Ancient Rome comes to vivid life in Conn Iggulden's Emperor series: THE GATES OF ROME * THE DEATH OF KINGS * THE FIELD OF SWORDS * THE GODS OF WAR * THE BLOOD OF GODS.…
