Imperium: A Novel of Ancient Rome by Robert Harris

i just started this book last night and so far it's great. very interesting. for those of you who might not know about it, it's basically a biography of Cicero through his personal assistant's eyes. anybody else read this? and if so, what are your thoughts on it?

No. It's football season. Are you saying Cicero's assistant was named Robert Harris?

Doesn't Robert Harris translate for Seutonious (Sp?) like in 'I, Claudius'?
