The First Man in Rome Audiobook (Free)

‘The First Guy in Rome was not the very best man: he was the Initial among additional men who were his equals…To be the First Man in Rome was something much better than kingship…’

In the 1st century B.C. at the height of the Roman Republic, two guys set their sights on becoming the First Guy – the Roman more respected than some other. Marius, a heroic man of power and means, does not have the noble blood to contend for the First Guy, but overcomes his common status when he marries in to the patrician house of Caesar. Sulla, a pleasure-seeking aristocrat without money of his own, is transformed by his ambitions into a brutal and daring warrior. Together the two men will shape history because they are thrust right into a raging storm – engaging in fatal politics contests and waging far-off wars for a state battling to carry on to its tremendous power.

Rich with memorable heroes and unerring historical accuracy, The First Man in Rome is certainly a vivid story of power, treachery, and a great Republic hurtling towards civil war…
