This moving story centers on the lives of two slaves--one a gladiator and one a house servant. It is a story of good vs. evil, God vs. gods, and selves warring against themselves. Beautiful Julia has everything she could ever want except the one thing she wants more than anything else--freedom. In striving for that end, she only enslaves herself. Marcus, too, has everything and above all he does have freedom, but he has no peace and no contentment. This is an interesting and exciting novel set in the early second century.
