Rogue Roman

Rogue Roman, which takes place during the most decadent and fascinating period of Rome's history, is the rich and compelling story of Cleon, a young and naive Near Eastern slave. Because of his surpassing handsomeness, Cleon is bought and trained to be an actor, a gladiator, and the greatest lover Rome has ever known. Desired by Vestal Virgins and Nero's mother alike, forced upon Nero's wife, Cleon is caught up in the passions of the rulers and wreckers of an empire and in Rome's ultimate destruction.

Rogue Roman, one of the most epic and blood-thirsty tales that Lance Horner has yet written, presents a vivid and accurate picture of Rome - a world that reels under the violence of corrupt power, that throbs with the beat of history, war, and uninhibited sexuality.
