Bruce -
This is probably the best of the four books in the series. I was not a fan of Book 3 and was afraid the story was going stale. After putting it on the back burner for a while, I finally decided to read the final installment and I'm so glad I did. Iggulden really keeps the tension and suspense taut as he drives to the conclusion of Caesar's extraordinary life. This book has it all: suspense, action, romance, betrayal, and forgiveness repaid by further betrayal. This one is hard to put down.
