    Worth the read
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 14, 2016*

Nice book.Those who defend Tiberius overlook the fact that all the appropriate successors to him died.  He murdered many people, including Agrippina. I am always repelled by old men who hang onto the last few years of their lives, in dread fear of dying, by killing anyone they suspect might be plotting against them. (I am old, BTW). Tiberius fits this description perfectly. The results speak for themselves. At the end, there were only two young boys, which included Caligula, in the line of succession.  An old man in that position should have carefully planned for his succession, and died or retired in peace. The idea that Tiberius wanted to retire and leave the cares of government to his successor is a joke.  Tyrants don't do that.During his reign, there was an essentially complete destruction of the Roman Senate. Nobody survived his reign. It reminds me of how Stalin essentially destroyed the Bolsheviks and rebuilt the Communist Party in his image.The book does not explore the role of Livia in much detail. Perhaps I have been misled, but I think that woman as portrayed in I, Claudius, likely had much more influence on Tiberius than is discussed in this book. Again, all the logical successors to Augustus died from this and that, leaving only Tiberius, who happened to be her biological son.Anyway, if you are interested in this period of history, read this book.Always keep this in mind: History is an account of what never happened by a man who wasn't there.

    A crappy-quality object, but a good book
  

*by L***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 11, 2016*

My main complaint is about the quality of the paper book itself that I was sent. It is very cheap. I had started reading this book in my school's library, then I bought it because I wanted to finish the book and wouldn't have access to it anymore. The library's edition was beautiful, and although this one looks the same at quick glance, it is not. The pages are thin, the print is not fully black but a purposefully-faded gray, and the cover photo is grainy and poor quality. I'm disappointed, because I was hoping that this might make a nice long-term addition to my library. It looks beat-up after only reading it once.As for the work itself by Robin Seager, a 10/10, a must-read. Tiberius has been my favorite emperor for a while, but this is the first full biography of him that I've read. Seager is sympathetic, but honest. Hopefully, readers of this book will be more understanding of Tiberius afterwards; rather than writing him off as cruel and apathetic (which he undoubtedly was to an extent), perhaps they will understand why he was this way, and see him as the complex, three-dimensional person that he was. Parts of the book are more exciting than others. It's a downright page-turner at some points, but at other moments, it seems like simply a bland catalogue of little-known names. This would be useful, though, for a student using this book for serious research.

    Great Read
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 15, 2010*

Seager provides a highly detailed record of the life of Tiberius. The author concentrated a good deal on the issue of succession during the Julio-Claudian period. Fate was cruel to Augustus as his preferred heirs died, leaving his stepson, Tiberius, to fill the role of Rome's most powerful man. Never truly wanting his position, Tiberius wished to do what was needed until another successor of Augustus' bloodline came of age and fame.  Fate was similarly cruel to Tiberius as it was to Augustus, and the rest of his rule turned out to be unpopular and corrupt.Seager analyzes much of Tiberius' reign through Tiberius' character traits, legal trials, and the lives of those close to him. The biography is well written and informative, but prior information is needed to fully comprehend the material. For those not versed in Roman history, you might not enjoy the book as I did.
