'Those About to Die is another historically accurate story from Dan Ashlin, set in Imperial Rome. A parade of ancient Rome's most colourful personalities, famous and not so famous, storm through the pages of this book, all told through the eyes and ears of a likeable character called Nosey. The attention to historical detail blended with a 'ripping yarn' make this a novel that motivated readers, particularly boys, will enjoy.' (Publisher's blurb)
