ANCIENT ROME RESURRECTED
The Vox Populi series brings life to ancient Rome through the voice of the people, defying the stereotypical angles of gladiators and war-torn sagas. Set in the 3rd century CE, The Medicus Codex is a sweeping tale told from the perspective of a physician, a medicus, from that of unwelcome transplant from Galilee to the Roman Emperor's personal physician. The human conflict reaches a crescendo, underscoring timeless struggles rooted in power, money, sex and survival. Next in the series will be Stein's equally epic novel Caligula and I (Balcony 7, 2017), and Master of the Mint (Balcony 7, 2018).
Cy Stein’s mastery of ancient Rome is evident on multiple layers, from geography to coinage, from ancient medicine to historical truths, as well as in his realistic descriptions of personality, everyday life and human struggle. Roma comes to life in all its fantastic and disturbing glory, with angles rarely explored let alone expounded upon in such eloquent detail, fraught with peril and eerily reminiscent of Western civilization today. With great attention to historical accuracy, especially for those in positions of power, The Medicus Codex offers rich enlightenment in a unique and timeless saga.
