About this listen

For one to rule, the other must die.

AD 312 is a year of horrific and brutal warfare. Constantine's northern army is a small force, plagued by religious rivalries, but seemingly unstoppable as they invade Maxentius's Italian heartlands. These relentless clashes, incidents of treachery and twists of fortune, see Maxentius' armies driven back to Rome.

Constantine has his prize in sight, yet his army is diminished and on the verge of revolt. Maxentius meanwhile works to calm a restive and dissenting Roman populace. When the two forces clash in the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, there are factors at work beyond their control and soon they are left with carnage.

There is only one way Constantine and Maxentius' rivalry will end. With one on a bloodied sword and the other the sole ruler of Rome....

Great climax to the trilogy

Great climax to the trilogy, exactly what I expect but I'm not complaining. well executed and good fun, as well as interning. Very military oriented this last one.

So atmospheric, a must for fans of this genre.

I read the first 2 books in this series which were both wonderful. Full of twists and turns and I enjoyed reading from both sides of the story. However, the third book I listen to on audible.Wow! The book came alive with the dramatic narrative creating suspense and drama. Loved it and will now look for other books by both the authors and the narrator.

Simply brilliant!

The trilogy is an absolute must if you are interested even vaguely in the time period. It really brings out the drama and calamity that was this period of Rome’s history.

Written by each writer the main characters couldn’t be so different but so alike. It really is a brilliant way of writing done impeccably by the authors. Although I found myself rooting for Constantine (actual history knowledge aside) Maxentius charter made me laugh all the way through with diary humour and witty remarks. Constantine is every bit the Roman soldier and you feel bursts of soldiery nostalgia through the way he is written.

Jonathan Keeble absolutely smashes his performance, but I have come to expect nothing less from him! Fans of the Black library books will love these books just got his voice acting alone!

10/10 would read all three of these book over and over!
