3 posts | 1 read
Marius' Mules II: The Belgae. 57BC. The fearsome Belgae have gathered a great army to oppose Rome, and Fronto and the legions assemble once more to take Caesar's war against the most dangerous tribes in the northern world. While the legions battle the Celts in the fiercest war of Caesar's career, the plots and conspiracies against him, both at Rome and among his own army, become ever deeper and more dangerous.

It took me a while to tie this book to the previous book in the series as opposed to other books with similar themes but once I had done so it was a fascinating portrait of Caesar during the conquest of Gaul, and by no means a complimentary one.

However, the character of Fronto bothers me. Despite frequent binges, he is never, ever, wrong, which is starting to get on my nerves a bit.
