  1. Pankaj

    Very well written, a great translation. The book is well-paced and easy to follow. A must-read.

  2. Anurag Jangir

    A truly comprehensive history, but sometimes too detailed. Recommended for serious students of Roman history.

  3. Vats Kaushal Joshi

    This book provided an insightful look into the Roman Empire. Cassius Dio’s writing brought the era to life.

  4. Mohammad Abrar Muneer

    Carter’s translation is excellent, making Dio accessible. However, the scope is so broad it feels superficial in places. Worth reading, though.

  5. Rohit Choudhary

    Found this book a bit tedious. Too much detail sometimes obscures the bigger picture. Might be better for serious scholars.

  6. Niharika Srivastava

    Comprehensive and insightful, this book is well-written. It offers an engaging exploration of Roman history.

  7. Jahnvi Arora

    Good information but long read. Dio goes into a lot of detail. I found it overwhelming.

  8. Ankush Singh

    A decent overview, but Dio can be a bit dry at times. Still, a valuable resource for understanding the period.

  9. Rakesh Kumar

    It felt like a textbook, rather than a book. However, I am glad I read it.

  10. Mohit Bansal

    Some parts were interesting, others were dragging. Still, this gave me a great understanding of Rome.

  11. Prachi Verma

    Great detail! I loved learning about Roman history through Dio’s writing. A must-read for any history buff.

  12. Vinay Digwal

    I struggled to get through this. Dio’s writing style just didn’t click with me. Gave up halfway through.

  13. Shreya N

    Not the most exciting read, but it is a solid historical account. I learned a lot about the first emperor.
