Welcome to the site. I read almost everything on the forum, so if you want to comment on the books, please feel free to register.

Since the first publication of ‘The Gates of Rome', I've written thirty books or so. (Look, I love to write. Please don't fall behind, one of us will be embarrassed.) My subjects have been as varied as Wars of the Roses, Pericles, Genghis and a fantasy trilogy. You can view them all in the Books tab above. History is full of great tales. There's always something inspiring. With or without a quote. Enjoy.

Fascinating and quite riveting. Very well written so that the reading is easy and the pace doesn’t slow. Clever to finally discover who the main two charecters really are. So now we know it’s onto book two.

Cannot wait to read the 2nd book. Conn Iggulden once again doesn’t disappoint!
The author gives such a vivid description of what life must have been like!

Alexander Roy Englander

Great Reading, gives knowledge on how Life was at that time, and history in a interesting way. I am eager for the next book

The story of such a life that is different from ours in almost every way should be boring or incomprehensible. Instead, it is the most exciting thing- the only thing I think of even when I am not reading!!
