What a Terrific Book!. A friend introduced me to the writings of Steven Saylor about 6 months ago - I simply can't get enough. Empire is exactly what I had hoped it would be, and I found myself truly sorry I had come to the end. I chose to read Empire first (prior to Roma), as I was in the mood to feel present during the reign of Hadrian. Steven doesn't disappoint in bringing all the emperors to life, and besides being a top notch historian he just knows how to tell a terrific tale. If you enjoy being a part of Roman history's greatest moments, then I highly recommend you read Empire (and don't stop there - Gordianus the Finder awaits you in other novels!) I purchased this book as a download, but very quickly realized I want the hardback in my library. And, Steven, if you ever happen to read this - I will never again be able to look at a statue or bust of Antinous without thinking of Marcus Pinarus hovering somewhere in the background. Thank you - what a great book! Now... back to Gordianus. I have some catching up to do.

Empire. Impressive. This a keeper. It makes one think and continue the search.

Excellent story telling of History. History of the Early Roman Emperors has been very lucidly portrayed. Most of the details have kept in the story. It is an excellent read and almost a page turner.

Saylor's Empire; A Family History. Following a family through generations in a historical context seems a challenge most authors fail to really get. Saylor "gets" it by not only bringing to life these individuals, but within the context of historical research & reporting, he makes the boring & uninteresting family members a fascinating story! I was particularly fascinated with the reporting of the traditional "upper class" wedding ceremony & depictions of Gladiatorial games! A good read & interesting throughout the work! If you haven't read any of his Gordanious The Finder series, I highly recommend them! Saylor's ease in bringing history to life is unmatched!
