Komod

Komod

Simon Turney

Rim ga je obožavao, bogovi su ga štitili, a ljubav izdala. "Fascinantna, zanimljiva i napeta priča o jednom od najozloglašenijih rimskih careva."

Drugo stoljeće poslije Krista. Rim uživa u razdoblju stabilnosti i prosperiteta. Granice Carstva rastu, a nakon mnogo godina car Marko Aurelije ima svog rođenog nasljednika, snažnog i hrabrog sina Komoda. No on nije ljubitelj ratovanja i osvajanja novih teritorija, nego hrvanja i gladijatorskih borbi. Dva desetljeća ratovanja oslabila su rimske zalihe, a s istoka je došla i strahovita pošast koja svaki dan uzima na tisuće ljudi. Carstvu prijeti prava katastrofa, vrijeme bogatstva i snage klizi u glad i bol. Pad Carstva može zaustaviti samo jedan čovjek. Za Rim je on njihov car Komod, njihov Herkul. Ali Komod je i sam na rubu sloma. Nakon brojnih gubitaka i izdaja povlači se u mračno raspoloženje, a kada tama zavlada, samo ga jedna žena može izbaviti iz nje. Njeno ime je Marcija. Za Rimljane, ona je careva ljubavnica. Za Komoda, ona je bila sve.
