Mientras el mundo entero empequeñece ante las legiones romanas, dos hombres extraordinarios sueñan con alcanzar el poder y la gloria: Mario, un militar de mediana edad que, pese a su origen humilde, ha logrado enriquecerse gracias a su tenacidad e inteligencia, y Sila, un joven y apuesto aristócrata arruinado y corrupto. Ambos comparten valentía, astucia y una ambición ilimitada, pero se enfrentan a la férrea oposición de temibles adversarios. Unidos tienen tanta fuerza que son capaces de vencer las traiciones de políticos, amantes, generales enemigos y senadores viperinos mediante sus despiadadas maquinaciones. Así, pueden aspirar a un destino espléndido, al más alto y codiciado honor que la República concede: ser el primer hombre de Roma.

4.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary book with a miserable translation
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2012
The book presents the Roman society at the time of the expansion of the Republic and friction between the aristocracy, that resents the active entering into politics of the lower classes,( a sequel from the necessity to enlarge the draft population) and the plebe, that claims its right to participate in politics and in the new affluence.
Friction that leads to violence and finally ends with the Republic and leads to the Imperium.
It is seen at the same time the clash of classes and the clash of the leaders, the way they lead, the way they become prisoners of their supporters.
Gives also a picture of mores, familiar and public, the position of women in the society, etc.
After you have red the first of the series you wish to get a book on Rome History, a biography of the principal acting souls, and of course the following books in the series, but just: GET IT IN THE ORIGINAL ENGLISH.
The translation is so careless, that the mistakes are transparent even without the original.
When somebody is ill, why are they calling "el fisico" , instead of "el medico". That is obvious a sloppy translation of "Physician".
If they got that wrong, what else is wrong?

Está muy bien documentado, pero la historia no me atrajo demasiado. A mi se me ha echo un poco pesado. Es una cuestión personal, obviamente.

Lo cogí con muchas ganas, pero lo he abandonado después de 300 paginas…. Y eso que me gustan las historias largas, las sagas, la novela histórica. Hay demasiados personajes secundarios, con nombres muy parecidos que llevan a confusión. Los detalles de la vida y de la organización de la sociedad romana son muy interesantes, pero acabé perdida y abrumada con tantos Cayos, Marcos, y Fulvios.
