Publisher's Summary

Julius Caesar has taken his legions north into mighty battles with the Gallic tribes. But as his successes mount, overwhelming ambition and new alliances begin to threaten his friendship with Marcus Brutus, brother-in-arms and fellow warrior. Although the conquest of Gaul has made Caesar a hero all over again, his victories on the battlefield cause still more rivalries at home. And ultimately Caesar and Brutus will have to choose whether to cross the Rubicon - together or singly - and to take the fight to Rome itself.

Upper class twit narrator

Where did this upper class twit narrator come from? It makes otherwise good book unbearable.

Terrible narration!

I have no idea what the publisher was thinking when they selected the narrator for this book. There was no continuity with the pronunciations of the characters from the previous books narrated by Robert Glenister. This was just one of the many faults with the narrator. Poor narration of this book was extremely distracting to the story.

Changed narrator !!!!!!

The change in narrator changes the pace, flow, names, and even the characters them selves! So disappointed with the change! Second narrator does not live up to Robert Glenister !

Conn Iggulden does not disappoint!

I previously read Conn Iggulden's War of the Roses series and he quickly became one of my favourite authors. He has continued to amaze me with the Emperor series too! His attention to detail and fabulous story telling is wonderful and the narration is superb. My daily highlight is looking forward to hearing the story of Julius Caesar as I go for hikes and are out and about or at home. #Audible1

Reader can’t pronounce the names right

The story is good and interesting but the reader is unable to pronounce any of the names properly, and it removes you from the story every time and make you wonder why they would have some one who can’t pronounce the names narrate it

Narrator Sucks

Like everyone else has to say, the narrator makes this book almost unlistenable. Maybe get someone who can pronounce the letter V properly next time

Why change name pronunciations in the third book of the series?

Who makes the decision to change the pronunciation of the character's names in the third book of the series.I thought that a bunch of new characters were being introduced to the story, only to realize that the reader was pronouncing V's as W's. Really irritating and contrived! Why not keep the pronunciations as they were in the first two books???

Amazing story, horrible narrator

I have read this series a couple times and wanted to listen while I drive to work but I’m having a very hard time listening to the Narrator pronounce Servilia is as sirwaleya and Octavian as Achtawiahn the sound quality is sub par too I will make sure to avoid Paul Blake narrations in the future.
