Founder of Rome: A Tale of the Ancient Republic

Founder of Rome: A Tale of the Ancient Republic

This is a work of historical fiction and follows the founding of the Roman Republic and its forcible ejection of the corrupt Monarchy. The time of the story is in the 6th century B.C.E, long before that favorite trio of fiction writers of ancient Rome - Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony and Cleopatra - whose actions caused the fall of the Republic.

It is the story of a fictional character but within the framework of the historical record (what little there is) and includes the well known names of that time, including Lucius Junius Brutus and Lucius Tarquinius Collatinus, the first Consuls of the Republic, and Tarquinius Superbus, the overbearing King with the insatiable appetite for conquest.

And of course, the person of Lucretia, the wife of Collatinus - that woman of many romantic myths and tragic tales of that time.
