Join us for an evening with bestselling author Conn Iggulden as he transports us to the heart of a Roman dynasty beset by power struggles and betrayal in his new book Tyrant, the second book in his epic Nero trilogy.

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 a master of pulsating historical fiction, bringing the brutaility, glory and power struggles of Imperial Rome vividly to life. We look forward to welcoming him to Oswestry to celebrate the publication of Tyrant.
