'Confirms Harris's undisputed place as our leading master of both the historical and contemporary thriller' Daily Mail

LAWS ARE SILENT IN TIMES OF WAR.

There was a time when Cicero held Caesar's life in the palm of his hand.

But now Caesar is the dominant figure and Cicero's life is in ruins.

Cicero's comeback requires wit, skill and courage.

And for a brief and glorious period, the legendary orator is once more the supreme senator in Rome.

But politics is never static.

And no statesman, however cunning, can safeguard against the ambition and corruption of others.

'The finest fictional treatment of Ancient Rome in the English language' - The Scotsman

Riveting and tumultuous, DICTATOR encompasses some of the most epic events in human history yet is also an intimate portrait of a brilliant, flawed, frequently fearful yet ultimately brave man - a hero for his time and for ours. This is an unforgettable tour de force from a master storyteller.

Recensioni della critica

Triumphant, compelling and deeply moving…the finest fictional treatment of Ancient Rome in the English language. They are distinguished by the mastery of the sources, sympathetic imagination, political intelligence and narrative skill…It’s a wonderful, dramatic, story, wonderfully told (Scotsman)
Robert Harris’s Cicero trilogy ends in grand style…the culmination of 12 years work and a remarkable literary achievement
The book works…more than that; at times it sings… Thrillers are supposed to thrill, but few really do raise your heart rate and short-circuit your critical faculties…Exhilarating…This trilogy deserves the highest compliment that can be paid to a work of historical fiction
Robert Harris completes his wonderful trilogy based on the life of Cicero. I haven’t enjoyed Roman history more since Robert Graves’s I, Claudius (Anthony Horowitz)
Harris’s fascination with politics galvanises his impressive knowledgeableness into compulsive fiction (Peter Kemp)
Harris is brilliant at the political then-as-now, giving Caesar with a hint of Blair – and also of Thatcher (Peter Stothard)
Staying close to the sources, Harris picks his way masterfully through Cicero’s personal and political dilemmas…superb…does full justice to one of Rome’s most interesting complex and humane statesmen, whose pragmatic political treatises proved so influential during the renaissance and enlightenment
Harris skilfully navigates these fraught years in Cicero’s life … Dictator triumphs
A superior historical thriller (Fiona Wilson)
Harris’ version of Cicero is a tremendous creation
