Robert Harris's Lustrum
Politics, power, and betrayal in ancient Rome
Lustrum by Robert Harris is the exciting second book of the Cicero Trilogy, which comes after Imperium. The book tells the story of Rome at its most dangerous and dramatic through the eyes of Cicero's loyal assistant Tiro. As Cicero becomes consul, he has to fight a lot of opponents, including Julius Caesar, Catiline, and Crassus, to save the Republic.
Harris writes a fascinating political thriller with great pacing and a lot of historical detail. It feels just as important today as it was in 63 BC.

"Power brings a man many luxuries, but a clean conscience is rarely one of them."
"අධිකාරිය මිනිසෙකුට බොහෝ වාසියක් ගෙන එයි නමුත් පිරිසිදු මනසක් කලාතුරකින් පමණි."
"அதிகாரம் மனிதனுக்கு பல நன்மைகளை தருகிறது ஆனால் சுத்தமான மனச்சாட்சியை அடைவது அரிது."
