About the book

This combined set brings together Robert Graves's two great historical novels about the Roman emperor Claudius. I, Claudius presents Claudius as an underestimated observer of the violent Julio-Claudian dynasty, while Claudius the God follows his unexpected rise to imperial power. Together, the novels offer a richly imagined portrait of ancient Rome filled with intrigue, ambition, murder and political survival.
