Excellent resource for Roman history!
I feel like this is such a great resource for anyone interested in Roman history. I learned a lot of this way back in school (maybe 10% honestly) but it's so great to have a refresher and to delve deeper into the history. For any history nerds like me, you can be sure that you will love this audiobook!
The author did an excellent job with research and putting the audiobook together in a way that is interested and far from boring. I think this would be a wonderful gift for an adult, college student or even high schooler.
I'd be interested to listen to other books that this author has done. Narrator's voice is great too!

Informative and entertaining
Listening to this book made me see Rome in a whole new light. It's like I was there, watching as kings and emperors rose and fell. The stories of battles and politics were so gripping, I couldn't stop listening. I was surprised by how much the Romans did that still affects us today. Hearing about Caesar and Cleopatra, I felt like I was in the middle of their plots and plans. The fall of the empire felt sad, but it was so interesting to understand why it happened. This book made history easy to follow, not like some school textbook LOL!
