Santiago Posteguillo
Immerse yourself in Julius Caesar's epic conquest of Gaul and the collision of three legendary worlds, masterfully and historically accurately narrated by Santiago Posteguillo.
A man forging his legend. Three worlds on the brink of an epic collision: the grandeur of Rome, the ferocity of Gaul, and the mysticism of Egypt. The price of glory was never so exorbitantly high. Following the overwhelming success of Roma soy yo and Maldita Roma, the acclaimed master of historical fiction, Santiago Posteguillo, returns with his most ambitious and anticipated work, culminating the first cycle of his monumental literary project. With his unmistakable documentary rigor and a narrative pace that captivates the reader from the first page, Posteguillo immerses us in Julius Caesar's conquest of Gaul, a milestone that redefined ancient history. In 58 BC, these three poles of power—the vast Roman Republic at its peak, the untamed tribes of Gaul, and the millennia-old kingdom of Egypt with its dynastic intrigues—seemed like distant realities. However, destiny would inexorably lead them towards an explosive convergence, a turning point that would decide the course of the known world. If in Roma soy yo we witnessed the origins and formation of the young Julius Caesar, and in Maldita Roma we accompanied his dizzying political ascent in a tumultuous Rome, now Caesar faces the greatest military and strategic challenge of his career: the conquest of Gaul. This territory, always hostile to Roman expansion, vast, immense, and populated by indomitable warriors, appeared before the eyes of his enemies as a death trap, a supposedly unconquerable place destined to be the tomb of his ambitions and the end of his glory. With exhaustive historical documentation and a superb narrative pulse, Posteguillo invites us to intensely experience the suffering and brutal epic of the Gallic War. We not only witness pitched battles and heartbreaking sieges, but we also become participants in the cruel and fratricidal political struggle unleashed in the heart of Rome, where intrigues and betrayals are woven with the same skill as military strategies. In parallel, the plot transports us to the exile of Pharaoh Ptolemy XII, expelled from Egypt and accompanied by his daughter, the astute and enigmatic young woman who would one day become the mythical Cleopatra. Gaul, Rome, and Egypt. An inexorable collision of three legendary worlds intertwined in a historical tapestry of epic proportions, marking the culmination of the Trilogy of Ascent, the first and exciting cycle of the series dedicated to the immortal figure of Julius Caesar.
