Description
Spartacus, the gladiator slave who defied the might of Rome, is the subject of this gripping novel. Historically, very little is known about Spartacus, but Ben Kane's book brings his story to life. Spartacus returns to his homeland of Thrace after a decade away, only to find a new king who seizes him and sells him to a Roman slave trader. This is the first part of a two-part epic novel, which follows Spartacus as he becomes one of the greatest legends of history. With his story spanning just two years, Spartacus led a slave army that nearly brought Rome to its knees. Ben Kane's novel takes the story to its halfway point, setting the stage for the next installment. Ben Kane, the author, has a deep passion for ancient history, which shines through in his writing.
