"Good biography. At times slow, but overall an interesting page-turner that really brought to life this intellectual giant of the ancient world - revealing both the good and the bad behind this man caught in a unique and troubling historical time."
"This book became my anchor in the period--I'm no scholar, so I don't know what proper Latinists think of it. But I found it absorbing and convincing."
"I've only read a little about Cicero. This book brought up many aspects I hadn't considered about what was happening during his time and how it might have influenced his decisions. I didn't feel a good connection with Cicero from this book, but it will help, having laid some of the background, when I get around to reading Cicero's original works."
"Anyone who took a look at my "read" shelf must realize I'm interested in Roman history. This book covers a particularly eventful period fousing on a man who was at the center of a lot of it. Clear and with enough background info that it doesn't require you to have read a half a dozen other books on the period."
