About this ebook

"It must be by his death." On the brink of betrayal, loyalty clashes with honor. 

Step into the gripping world of intrigue and betrayal with "Eve Of Ides," a drama that delves into the untold story behind the night preceding Julius Caesar's fateful assassination. Join Caesar, Brutus, and Antony at a feast where secrets are unveiled, and destinies are sealed.

March 14, 44 BC. Elected Dictator of Rome, Caesar is about to embark on a new war in the East to avenge an old friend. With just one meeting of the Senate standing between him and his foes, Caesar attends a farewell dinner. Unknown to him, several of the guests are plotting to end his life. Among them is Brutus, who is deeply conflicted about the plan, struggling with both morality and mortality. As the tension rises, Antony poses the question of the best way to meet one's end. Caesar's poignant response, "What does it matter, so long as it's quick?" sets the stage for a journey that intertwines history with Shakespeare, delving into the unexplored relationships between the key players of the age – Caesar, Brutus, and Antony. Experience history in its most vivid and dramatic form!

About the author

David Blixt is an author of historical fiction, writing novels that span the early Roman Empire (the Colossus series, his play Eve Of Ides) through Renaissance Italy (the Star-Cross’d series) past the Elizabethan era (Her Majesty’s Will) to the Victorian era with his series of Nellie Bly novels. In 2021 he announced the discovery of 11 unknown novels by Bly herself, and released them through his imprint, Sordelet Ink.

Combining a love of theatre with a deep respect for the quirks and passions of history, David’s work is consistently described as ‘intricate’, ‘taut’, and ‘breathtaking’. As the Historical Novel Society says, “Be prepared to burn the midnight oil. It’s well worth it.”
