Summary

Con magistral precisión histórica y un excelente ritmo narrativo, Santiago Posteguillo presenta la historia de la infancia y juventud de Africanus, uno de los personajes más influyentes de Occidente.

¡MAGISTRAL! ¡IMPRESCINDIBLE! ¡UN AUTÉNTICO BEST-SELLER!

A finales del siglo III a. C., Roma se encontraba al borde de la destrucción total, a punto de ser aniquilada por los ejércitos cartagineses al mando de uno de los mejores estrategas militares de todos los tiempos: Aníbal. Su alianza con Filipo V de Macedonia, que pretendía la aniquilación de Roma como Estado y el reparto del mundo conocido entre las potencias de Cartago y Macedonia, constituía una fuerza imparable que, de haber conseguido sus objetivos, habría determinado para siempre el devenir de Occidente.

Pero el azar y la fortuna intervinieron para que las cosas fueran de otro modo. Pocos años antes del estallido del más cruento conflicto bélico que se hubiera vivido en Roma, nació un niño que estaba destinado a cambiar el curso de la historia: Publio Cornelio Escipión.

¡ESPECTACULAR!

Impresionante obra. Pelos de punta durante muchos momentos de la narración. Santiago Posteguillo y Raúl Llorens hacen que viajes en el tiempo y seas testigo en primera línea de batalla.

El Jon Snow del Mediterráneo

Pero con la evidente ventaja de haber existido y no necesitar dragones o magia para dejarte de boca abierta. Por Cástor y Pólux y todos los dioses!

Una novela històrica molt ben explicada

Aquesta novela ens trasllada a l'època romana, amb un nivell de detall i una expressió escrita que et trasllada als escenaris. Molt ben escrita i l'audillibre té molta qualitat. S'ha d'escoltar, molt recomanable.

Dull and ordinary with good moments

Excellently read but disappointing story line until last battle when soldiers and reader were uncertain until the young generals plan was revealed by rapid movements between different scenes.
