About this product

Product Information

Nero, Caesar, Astrology, Incest, Torture, Murder, Orgies, Music, Madness! How Roman obsession with astrology murderously affected the reign of Nero. Dramatisation of the life of the Roman Empire's most controversial emperor, Nero Caesar, and how his actions were influenced by his belief in the stars. The novel explores why he killed his mother Agrippina, why he was influenced by comets (including Halley's comet) and how the exact hour of his death was accurately predicted. Nero was the first persecutor of the early Christians, who called him Antichrist and Beast 666. Nero's belief in the stars was an obsessive influence on his rule of Rome, which was set afire by persecuted Christians and Romans as an enraged response to the emperor performing music in public.
