From the best-selling author of the "First Man in Rome," comes the second book in the continuing saga of the downfall of one of civilization's earliest attempts at democracy - the Republic of Rome.

But the aging Marius seeks an unprecedented and prophesied seventh consulship - setting him at odds with the brilliant, tormented Lucius Cornelius Sulla, once Marius's valued right-hand man, now his most dangerous rival.
