Slavery in Republican Rome explained
The second Sub Rosa novel chronicling the adventures of Gordianus the Finder is set during the slave revolt of Spartacus, when Marcus Crassus is building a private army and petitioning the Senate of Rome to lead an army against Spartacus.
Lucius Licinius, the overseer of Crassus’ estate in Baiae has been brutally murdered and the blame has fallen on two runaway slaves who are said to be going to join Spartacus. Crashes has vowed to kill all 99 slaves on the estate after the funeral games for Licinius. Gordianus has three days to find the truth and divert the slaughter.
This is a vivid exposé of the realities of slavery in the last days of the Roman Republic, the attitudes towards them as they are considered property and not persons. There is adventure, greed, politics, and treason.
This is narrated by Scott Harrison who also narrated Roman Blood. I enjoyed this audio book, and recommend it.
