“Gritty, enthusiastic and chaotic, this fascinating book is just a true page turner and a darn good read. It provides Spartacus—and historic Rome—to vibrant, vibrant life.” —Steven Pressfield, writer of Gates of Fire  Long the stuff of stories, Spartacus is famous to many contemporary viewers through the traditional Kubrick movie edition of Howard Fast’s book. Today best-selling historic author Bill Kane returns to the origin content and provides a vibrant and powerful new perspective of the person who was the first choice of an army of slaves Spartacus—Roman army servant, auxiliary, gladiator and fundamentally who almost brought Rome to its knees. Bill Kane’s amazing book starts within the village to which Spartacus has delivered being an auxiliary in the R oman military after escaping from existence.
