It is the year 50 BCE, 700 years since the establishment of Imperial Rome. Young Quintus Livius Drusus is returning from his studies in Athens to find his home not quite how it once was—there are cracks in the foundations of the Empire itself, enemies among his father’s old friends, his betrothed all but ensnared by their schemes, corruption and decadence rotting the very core of Rome. Full of the confidence of youth, Drusus is sure that none of the threats looming in the future will actually come to pass, and if they do, they will be easily repaired. However, he is soon to find out just how fragile a system built on the bleeding backs of slaves and fed by constant wars of invasion can truly be.
Adapted from the book by William Stearns Davis of the same name, Friend of Caesar volume 1 is the first of a 10 chapter series telling the tale of the fall of the Roman Republic, and the story of one young man, who is about to learn just how costly it can be to swear an oath of loyalty to a man like Julius Caesar.
To what I say…
This book is so unique, frankly it is the 1st one ever (at least to me) that I saw a furry story set in Ancient Roman times… And in case your wondering the history it covers is fairly accurate. I would not say 100% perfect. But pretty damn close to it.
For what it is it’s a good tale and I can’t wait until volume 2 hits.
So where do I rank it 7 / 10
