Acerca de esta escucha
Leonidas, champion gladiator of Rome, is set free from the games by a mysterious benefactor who grants him freedom, a place to live, and a servant - Cassia, a scribe - to look after him.
But the benefactor is only so generous - Leonidas must pay his own way and Cassia’s, which means hiring himself out. The sharp-witted Cassia quickly lands him a post as a bodyguard, escorting a retired senator to Ostia.
The trip soon turns deadly, as Leonidas and Cassia find themselves squarely in the middle of intrigue that reaches from the slums of the Subura to the Palatine Hill and the emperor Nero himself.
Book one of the Leonidas the Gladiator Mysteries.

Historia
The Downs, the poor district of the city of Avarest, is home to cutthroats and thieves, pickpockets and prostitutes, all of whom pay tribute to one of two powerful crime bosses. It is also home to Aaron Envelar, a disillusioned sellsword known as the Silent Blade, who cares nothing for the criminal overlords or their schemes, who only wants to survive and make a little coin. But when a group of thugs steal his mother’s necklace, the only link he has to his murdered parents, Aaron decides that sometimes gold isn’t enough - sometimes, blood is the only payment worth taking.

Historia
In this Edgar Award-nominated mystery, John Maddox Roberts takes listeners back to a Rome filled with violence and evil. Vicious gangs ruled the streets of Crassus and Pompey, routinely preying on plebeian and patrician alike. So the garroting of a lowly ex-slave and the disembowelment of a foreign merchant in the dangerous Subura district seemed of little consequence to the Roman hierarchy.

When the merchant Nicholas Walcote hires Guest to investigate his young wife Philippa for adultery, he discovers an underground world of danger and dirty dealings.

Magdalene la Batarde is the madam of the Old Priory Guesthouse in Southwark. She and her women are expected to engage in a number of sinful activities, but bloody murder isn't one of them until Baldassare, the messenger, dies. Though Baldassare isn't a regular client of the Old Priory Guesthouse, Magdalene and her women refuse to allow his death to go unavenged. Of course, their efforts aren't completely altruistic.

Wonderfully different
I loved the setting of this mystery. Ancient Rome during the time of Nero is fascinating. Leonidas is a simple and yet complex character. He has just recently been freed by an anonymous benefactor. Because of his years as a gladiator he believes that he is not smart. As the story progresses it is revealed that he is more astute than he thinks and has more varied interests. His slave Cassia, who was also a gift from the benefactor, is quite intelligent and guides Leon I'd as through this new phase of his life. I love their interactions. The mystery is well plotted and the narrator brings the story to life most excellently.

One of my favorite authors!
Ashley Gardner likes men. I say that because - refreshingly- her male protagonists are humble, generous guys with a moral code. Guys that do the right thing. Leonidas and Gabriel Lacey are great characters. They excel and are lucky at times but not supernaturally. I can't recommend this series or Captain Lacey series enough or more highly!!! Tastes are relative but some things are universal.

Great listen
I am so pleased that I stumbled on this series. I love Roman history. Nero is usually portrayed as the ultimate baddie. Not in this story. Cand wait to start 1.5.

This Audible Book would be a better print book.
This book may have been a good read: It does interest me, however the stilted and monotone manner in which it is read is horrible! I couldn't even get through a chapter and I'm a person that can listen to poor renditions for at least five chapters or so without giving up.
I can't stress how bad the narration is, and of course the clip that is offered before one makes a purchase is the contents or an area of dialogue that disguises how truly awful the reading is. This rendition is definitely not due the honour afforded to even the worst of performances.
One last thing; it matters not if the character is lounging sleepily by the pool or dodging arrows and deflecting sword attacks, it is all delivered without a single nod to danger or excitement. The character could have been washing dishes and would have sounded more enthralling!
