Plot summary

Marcus Cornelius Primus has been freed from slavery, and wants to find and rescue his mother. Meanwhile, his former master Caesar wants him to help defeat the rebellious slaves led by Brixus.

Style

The Gladiator series is intended for young teens and older, with a targeted age group of 11 years old and up.[1] The story is quite clear, fast and without excessive details. The frequent action scenes are described very precisely and graphically.

gollark: With some sort of weird coatings.
gollark: Apparently, aluminium or glass/ceramic.
gollark: Plus probably some more for overheads.
gollark: Ah, but if you want to just destroy the Earth by splitting it into unreasonably small pieces, you just need enough antimatter to overcome the gravitational binding energy.
gollark: Destroying (well, damaging in the longish run) human civilization, yes, that's quite easy, but the *Earth*?
