The complete story of Spartacus' revolt from his escape, through his victories, to his eventual defeat and the bloody price paid by those who had fought by his side.

In the year 73 BC, Spartacus broke out of a gladiatorial training school and formed an army of runaway enslaved people and those with little to lose. This army defeated two Roman armies and attacked several cities. Terrified lest the revolt spread, the government in Rome assigned Crassus and Pompey to crush the rebellion. They cornered Spartacus and brought him to battle near the source of the river Silarus. During the battle, Spartacus was killed and his army defeated. Crassus crucified 6,000 prisoners as an example to others who might think of revolt.

Written by Nic Fields and illustrated by Steve Noon, this campaign title brings to life the story of Rome¹s most famous revolt and the ex-gladiator who led it.
