The real life of Spartacus was far more complex than Hollywood would have you believe.
There really was a Spartacus Prophecy and no body of the gladiator was ever found. Commencing at the final battle of the third servile war, where all the films end, this story covers an epic journey of one man's resistance against the might of Rome and slavery.

What the critics say:
This thoroughly gripping tale grasps the reader’s attention with a clenched fist and holds it throughout. The author’s obvious enthusiasm, careful research and detailed knowledge of this historical setting are deftly woven into the writing. Well developed characters and subtle attention to dialogue combine to create a palpable realism that allows us to be comfortably led through the plot. Consequently, ‘The Spartacus Prophecy’ could easily break the boundaries of its genre and attract a much wider appeal. Gareth E. Hill.
