Augustus

After the brutal murder of his great-uncle, Julius Caesar, Octavian, a shy and scholarly youth of nineteen, suddenly finds himself heir to the vast power of Rome. He is destined, despite vicious power struggles, bloody wars and family strife, to transform his realm and become the greatest ruler the western world had ever seen.

Dupa uciderea brutala a stra-unchiului sau, Iulius Caesar, Octavian, un tanar timid si savant de nouasprezece ani, se trezeste dintr-o data mostenitor al vastei puteri a Romei. El este destinat, in ciuda luptelor vicioase pentru putere, a razboaielor sangeroase si a conflictelor in familie, sa-si transforme taramul si sa devina cel mai mare conducator pe care l-a vazut vreodata lumea occidentala.
