But first, a word from ... Today's Sponsor
This is is much more than a mere novel, but an epic story that I recommend highly for its historical accuracy and entertainment value.
Marching With Caesar-Conquest of Gaul
I am a 53 year old retired Infantry Marine, born and raised in Texas and currently living on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state. I have been writing since my first novel, written at the age of 10, when my friends and yours truly fought off the Soviet hordes, who just happened to pick my block to launch their invasion. That was their big mistake. But like a lot of dreams, it got sidetracked until recently, when I decided to focus my passion on an era and subject that interested me a great deal. Like my characters in Ancient Rome, I have served as the pointy tip of the spear of our nation's policy, and it is with this perspective that I tell the story of Titus Pullus and his friends. This is my first published novel, and is the first in a completed trilogy that covers the career of Titus Pullus.

Here's the set-up:
Marching With Caesar-Conquest of Gaul is a first-person narrative,
written in the form of a memoir as dictated to a scribe of Titus Pullus,
Legionary, Optio, First Spear Centurion of Caesar's 6th and 10th
Legion. The memoir is written three years after his retirement as Camp
Prefect, when Titus is 61 years old.
Titus, along with his boyhood friend Vibius Domitius, joins the 10th Legion in the draft of 61 BC, when Gaius Julius Caesar is the governor of Spain. Titus and Vibius are assigned to a tent group, with seven other men who will become their closest friends during their times in the legion. Titus, Vibius and their comrades endure the harsh training regimen that made the legions the most feared military force in the ancient world. The 10th Legion is blooded in a series of actions in Spain, led by Caesar in a campaign that was the true beginning of one of the most brilliant military careers in history.
Three years after joining the legions, the 10th is called on again, this time to be part of the subjugation of Gaul, one of the greatest feats of arms in any period of history. During the subsequent campaigns, the 10th cements its reputation as Caesar's most favored and trusted legion, and is involved in most of the major actions during this period.
This first book of a completed trilogy closes with Caesar crossing the Rubicon, and the 10th preparing to march to war, this time against fellow Romans.

One Reviewer Notes:
Mr. Peake has combined the "Broad" (grand strategy) with the "Narrow" (personal actions/feelings/motives) in a very effective manner. He takes a story that most who have read about Caesar already know and makes it very compelling. He effectively summarizes Caesar's ambitions and Senate-related difficulties in a way that gives real insight into the politics and thinking of the Roman patricians.
This is a nice backdrop to the main story of Titus Pullus who serves with Caesar's famous 10th Legion. Titus is easy to relate to, easy to like, and the perfect hero for the book and series. Detail of the day-to-day and actual combat is excellent... I highly recommend this novel and am really looking forward to book two!
