Book Description
Rome’s new hero may prove to be her greatest enemy yet! The tyrant king has been thrown out of Rome and the Republic has been born. But Rome is still a divided nation, with patricians against plebeians, and it’s not long before tensions between the two begin to rise. Into this turbulent arena strides Caius Marcius Coriolanus. Trained from childhood to be a supreme fighter, he soon becomes Rome’s greatest warrior and earns the respect, if not the love, of the people. Caius’s proud nature inflames the people’s resentment against him, and they insist the new republic rids itself of this troublesome man. Caius is banished from Rome, from his friends and family, and most disastrously, from his mother! Without her guiding hand, there is only person Caius can turn to – Rome’s greatest enemy!
