Capturing both the brilliant allure of their rule and the blood-steeped shadows cast by their crimes, \u003ci\u003eDynasty\u003c\/i\u003e travels from the great capital rebuilt in marble to the dank and barbarian forests of Germany. Populated by a spectacular cast: murderers and metrosexuals, adulterers and Druids, scheming grandmothers and reluctant gladiators, it vividly recreates the world of Rome after Julius Caesar. A tale of rule and ruination, \u003ci\u003eDynasty\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of a family that transformed and stupefied the western world and that continues to cast a mesmerizing spell across the millennia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTom Holland is a historian of the ancient world and a translator.
