Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Michael Praed delivers a stellar performance that brings 'The Road to Rome' to life with a mix of intensity and nuance. His portrayal of Romulus and Tarquinius is both commanding and nuanced, making their journeys feel personal and perilous. The story unfolds with a balanced blend of action and introspection, keeping listeners engaged throughout the 16 hours and 39 minutes. However, some may find the pacing slightly uneven at times, with moments that feel a bit slow amidst the intense battle scenes. Despite this, Praed's narration elevates the audiobook to a must-listen for history buffs and newcomers alike.
