VetSurgeon member Alex Gough MRCVS, Head of Medicine Referrals at Bath Veterinary Referrals, has published his second historical thriller, Bandits of Rome, available for pre-order now in paperback (£7.99) or Kindle (£1.99) from Amazon.
The book picks up the story of Gaius Valerius Carbo as he leaves Rome with his family for the Italian countryside, only to be set upon by masked bandits.
Alex's first thriller, Watchmen of Rome, went to the top of the Amazon bestseller charts and has achieved reader reviews of an average 4.4 out of 5 stars.
Apparently the more people that pre-order the book before the 26th August, the higher it'll go up the charts. So if this sounds like it could be up your street, buy it today and you'll give a colleague a helping hand up the ladder at the same time.

Thanks so much for the help for a struggling author, Arlo!
My pleasure!
Another veterinary surgeon who is an author of Roman Empire's books, has also published this year an new novel, "Eagles of Rome". Although "Hannibal, enemy of Rome" is probably the most famous of his works.
Best of luck, Alex. I'm a bit of a library mouse, and history novels are my unbridled love. I've heard of Caesar, Cleopatra, Augustus and Livia, Tiberius, "little boots", Cla-cla-claudius, Nero and his lovely mum, Herodes, Trajan and Adrian of course, but no idea of this Carbo. I'm curious now...
