THE Grass Crown
COLLEEN McCULLOUGH
From the best-selling author of The First Man in Rome comes the second book in the continuing saga of the downfall of one of civilization's earliest attempts at democracy—the Republic of Rome.
Praised as "awesome and epic" (Los Angeles Times) and "a truly astonishing work" (Time magazine), Colleen McCullough's The First Man in Rome was a stunning literary achievement—one now surpassed with the publication of The Grass Crown, which sweeps the reader once again into a world of conflict, political intrigue, violence, implacable enmity, and enduring love.
The career of Gaius Marius—victorious general and six-time consul of Rome—is in decline.

The career of Gaius Marius—victorious general and six-time consul of Rome—is in decline. But the aging Marius seeks an unprecedented and prophesied seventh consulship—setting him at odds with the brilliant, tormented Lucius Cornelius Sulla, once Marius's valued right-hand man, now his most dangerous rival.
Against a backdrop of civil war, massacre, and conspiracy these two men vie for political dominance—and must also contend with forces that threaten Rome's very survival: rebellion in the neighboring Italian states and the machinations of a barbaric Eastern conqueror.
More than a chronicle of historic clashes and great events, The Grass Crown brings to life the men, women, and children who will help shape the future of the Western worid—and whose acts of courage,

(continued from front flap)
passion, and treachery interweave to create an enthralling and relentlessly paced story of a remarkable society and a glorious epoch.
Matchless in its detail, rich with true and recognizable human emotions, The Grass Crown brilliantly celebrates the triumphs and tragedies of a worid long gone—one in which we can see ourselves hauntingly reflected.
COLLEEN McCULLOUGH is the internationally acclaimed author of six immensely successful novels: Tim, The Thorn Birds, A Creed for the Third Millennium, An Indecent Obsession, The Ladies ofMissalonghi, and The First Man in Rome. She lives on Norfolk Island in the South Pacific.
