‘Holland does not just tell the story of the reign of the Julio-Claudian family. He knits the history of ancient Rome into his narrative - its founding myths, the fall of the republic, the religious superstitions - with a skill so dextrous you don’t notice the stitching.

‘A witty and skilful storyteller... He recounts with pleasure his racy tales of psychopathic cruelty, incest, paedophilia, matricide, fratricide, assassination and depravity’ - William Dalrymple, New Statesman

‘A wonderful, surging narrative... [for] anyone interested in history, politics or human nature - and it has never been better told’ - Mail on Sunday
