Caesar Dies - Livres de poche

Talbot Mundy was an early 20th century English writer who often wrote under the pseudonym Walter Galt. At age 19 he left London to travel to India and parts of the Near and Far East. Most of Mundy's novels are set in India under British Occupation in which the loyal British officers encounter ancient Indian mysticism. In the 1920's Mundy wrote stories about Tros of Samothrace, a Greek freedom fighter who aided Britons and Druids in their fight against Julius Caesar. Caesar Dies is set during the reign of Emperor Commodus. The story is full of the glory, debaucheries, and cruelty of the Roman Empire. There is palace intrigue and action throughout. Commodus is the son of Marcus Aurelius. Commodus has gone insane and his inner circle plots his death. Although many plot his death, it remains to be seen who will do the deed and take the credit.
