Damnatio Memoriae: From Empress to Goddess in the Year of Four Emperors - (Paperback or Softback)

The conclusion of the three-book series that began with Delicatus and continued with Imperatrix.Captured by pirates as a boy and trafficked to the slave markets of Rome, Sporus rose from a poet's plaything to one of the most powerful figures in the Roman Empire.The historian Suetonius tells us that the Emperor Nero emasculated and married his slave Sporus, the spitting image of murdered Empress Poppaea. But history has more tidbits about Sporus, who went from "puer delicatus" to Empress to one Emperor and concubine to another, and ended up being sentenced to play the Earth-Goddess in the arena.The decadence of Imperial Rome comes to life in S.P. Somtow's Literary Titan Award-winning trilogy about one of ancient history's wildest characters.
