Summary

For one to rule, the other must die。

312 AD is a year of horrific and brutal warfare。 Constantine's northern army is a small force, plagued by religious rivalries, but seemingly unstoppable as they invade Maxentius' Italian heartlands。 These relentless clashes, incidents of treachery and twists of fortune see Maxentius' armies driven back to Rome。

Constantine has his prize in sight, yet his army is diminished and on the verge of revolt。 Maxentius meanwhile works to calm a restive and dissenting Roman populace。 When the two forces clash in the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, there are factors at work beyond their control and soon they are left with carnage。

There is only one way Constantine and Maxentius' rivalry will end。 With one on a bloodied sword and the other the sole ruler of Rome。。。

I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review - thank you so much!Gods of Rome is book three in the series, and it culminates in the most glorious battle for Rome。I've read and enjoyed the whole series now, which is no surprise as I'm a huge fan of historical fiction。The strongest part of this enjoyable series for me has always been the two main characters, Constantine and Maxentius。 Neither of them is portrayed as a typical hero or villain, but they are wonderfully flawed and so human。 Both make good and bad decisions and have to go through difficult times。 Their character development was a pleasure to read。 Honestly, I wanted both of them to win because I liked them so much。I#ve always been interested in history, so I knew the likely ending of the book before I started reading。 But that is often the case in historical fiction, and for me, the journey is just as enjoyable as the conclusion。 It's always interesting to see how authors solve problems and come up with their own take on the story。 In this case, I had a rough idea of what would happen but didn't know too much about the time period。 So I especially loved that I learned so much while reading an excellent book。 You can really feel how well researched the series is and it transports you right back to ancient Rome。 The writing is excellent, and the two authors work perfectly together。All in all, if you're interested in history and Rome, I highly recommend this series! 。。。more
