An evening with Conn Iggulden and book signing

02/06/2025 7:00 pm

We are delighted to be hosting Conn Iggulden for an evening to celebrate the release of his latest historical novel, Tyrant.

Ancient Rome, AD 50

The boy Nero lives. His mother Agrippina has married her way to power, tangling the Emperor Claudius in her skirts.

The emperor may have a son and heir of his own, but Agrippina sees no obstacles to her ambition.

Rome is a path through a marsh, lit by torches. Those who walk it are always one step from disaster – and the road itself is treacherous, slippery with blood.

Claudius may have the world at his feet, but he has Agrippina in his bed.

CONN IGGULDEN is one of the most successful authors of historical fiction writing today, with bestselling series on Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan and the Wars of the Roses, as well as two stand-alone novels: Dunstan, set in the red-blooded world of tenth-century England and The Falcon of Sparta, in which Iggulden returns to the Ancient World.

Tyrant follows on from the Sunday Times bestselling Nero in Iggulden’s most recent series
