Komod

Komod

Simon Turney

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

Drugi vek nove ere. Rim uživa u periodu stabilnosti i prosperiteta. Granice Carstva rastu, a posle mnogo godina car Marko Aurelije dobija svog prirodnog naslednika, snažnog i hrabrog sina Komoda. Ali on nije ljubitelj ratovanja i osvajanja novih teritorija, već rvanja i gladijatorskih borbi. Dve decenije ratovanja oslabile su rimske zalihe, a sa istoka je stigla strašna kuga koja je odnela hiljade života svakog dana. Imperiji preti prava katastrofa, vreme bogatstva i moći klizi u glad i bol. Samo jedan čovek može zaustaviti pad Carstva. Za Rim, on je njihov car Komod, njihov Herkul. Ali sam Komod je na ivici propasti. Posle brojnih gubitaka i izdaja, povlači se u mračno raspoloženje, a kada mrak zavlada, iz njega može da ga izbavi samo jedna žena. Zove se Marcija. Za Rimljane, ona je careva ljubavnica. Za Komoda, ona je bila sve.
