If you enjoy reading anything involving the Roman Empire then you will love "Eterlimus", Eterlimus follows the tale of, well, Eterlimus, one of the most infamous playboys of the Roman era, When the Roman Empire moves to the leadership of a cruel and tangent Lucius Tarquinius Superbus, many of the citizens are left suffering and in fear, Etermilus turns into an unexpected hero, as he becomes a revolutionary leader in his own right, and is the one who can bring light back in these dark times,

This book follows the drama of the fall of the Roman Empire, allowing you to delve into all aspects of that historical time, I'm not sure what genre I would list this book under, It had a bit of everything from drama to action, to love and crime, All aspects of this book are combined in a beautifully written way, I have read quite a few books in this historical fiction genre especially ones targeting ancient Rome, I have not read very many books involving the fall of the empire many seem to stick to the glory times of that period, I felt this book was done in a very unique way with a story that hadn't been overwritten by other authors, It was a read that I didn't get that sense of 'deja vu' that I sometimes get when reading books in a similar genre, This one wasn't written like any other book I've read,

The story moved at a perfect pace, keeping me on my toes from the first chapter to the last page, Between the storyline there are moments of betrayel, love, fighting for one's virtues, sticking up for the good, finding the bad, and sacrifice, I've rarely read a story that affected so many of my emotions in such a short period of time taking me on a roller coaster of hope, despair, pity, and admiration for the characters involved.


Eterlimus is your stereotypical hero, He's the kind of character that leaps from the pages and is vividly created in your imagination, The Roman setting around him is brought to life beautifully with vivid detail, I so easily fell into this story and all of it's twists and turns, It was such an easy read transporting me to another time and place in the most entertaining of ways, I'm definitely a fan. I love the historical fiction genre especially Roman inspired pieces, and this one has definitely made me an even bigger fan, Eterlimus by Aziz Hamza is apage historical novel, I really liked Hamzas quote If we want to understand what is happening in the present, and to see what will happen in the future, we have to look into the history.

Get ready to be transported back in time, I was completely engrossed in this tale of backstabbing, corruption and intrigue, The writing and descriptions are excellent, I felt as though each scene played out in my head like a mini movie,
I received this book through Goodreads First Reads,

Eterlimus is surprisingly short, only a little overpages, and printed in large font with wide line spacing, I recently learned the author has background as a journalist and columnist, which may explain how he could take such a rich, complex culture like Ancient Rome and only present to the reader the details s/he absolutely needs to follow the story.
There is little empty detail the surroundings are hardly described outside of telling it is the senate, or the pleasure house run by the titular pimp, It's a style I am not used to with historical fiction, but that doesn't mean I would not gladly digest such a style of storytelling,

However, I do have some conflicting feelings regarding this book, First of all, I did not enjoy the translation job, It felt somewhat dry, at times like it was trying too hard to convey the feeling of a time long past, and perhaps even a little graceless or lefthanded, Secondly, the titular character, pimp Eterlimus, isn't really a very likeable man at all, He can be very petty, moody, and he is decidedly vindictive, The book also includes one of the few things I absolutely abhor in any given story, and that is the concept of true love being something that just magically happens when you see someone who is physically an exceptional beauty in your eyes.
It seems terribly superficial, and I'm sorry, but I really can't stand it, ever,

This is not to say the book would be bad, Despite the translating job making me cringe, I do recognize Hamza's skill as a writer, The plot develops well, and the numerous twists ensure there are no dull moments in Eterlimus, And, though the main character was rather unlikeable, he also struck me as very much human, He felt real in all his flaws, That is something I appreciate, and I'm not one to claim that a main character would have to always win the hearts of the readership in order to make an excellent leading character to the story.
If the character evokes emotions and is believable, that is more than enough, and that is what Eterlimus' person was, This factor of realism is shown in many other characters in the book as well, such as Brutus, whose character demonstrates the very unfortunate aspect of human behaviour, where one builds a facade to show to others in order to hide one's true intentions and goals.


Overall, a wellbuilt tale of political intrigue, The book is very unique in its choice of main cast, which I appreciate, I don't think I've ever before even heard of a book written mostly from the viewpoint of a brothel owner in Ancient Rome! All credit to Hamza for such a fresh viewpoint.
رواية جميلة وخفيفة قرأت اتريليموس باللغة العربية. جذبني الإسم جدا خاصة ان الحضارتين الرومانية والإغريقية مبهمتان بالنسبة لي ولا اعلم عنهما سوى القليل جدا.
اعجبتني فكرة الكاتب بان يقتنص قصة رومانية وبدأت مخيلتي بالابحار فزادت توقعاتي بحسن الكتاب.
عندما بدأت القراءة تحطمت توقعاتي تماما! بالعادة افضل انهاء ما بدأت حتى لو لم اتمتع بما افعل. ولا أفضل اعطاء السلبيات ولكني لم اجد اي امر ايجابي غير اسم الرواية وكون احداثها تدور بالحقبة الرومانية.
لغة السرد ركيكة الى ابعد الحدود الحبكة مهترئة الدراما سريعة وضعيفة جدا اللغة ادنى من بسيطة الابعاد والحقائق التاريخية شبه معدومة العديد العديد من الاخطاء النحوية الصرفية والمطبوعة.
حبذا لو أعيد انشاء هذا الكتاب او لو قام الروائيون بتأليف او ترجمة كتب جميلة تأخذنا بين ثنايا الاغريق والرومان. A trader of slaves and flesh, Eterlimus is notorious for his cunning plots and flamboyant lifestyle, As the proprietor of Romes greatest pleasure house, he rubs shoulders with societys most powerful figures, But few know of the tragic past hidden beneath his genial façade,

Most men would crave revenge from the King whod cost them everything, but Eterlimus has lost enough to know that blood only begets more blood,

That is until news spreads of a violation so unthinkable the people demand an end to the Kings tyrannical rule, ItsBC and the last Roman Kingdom teeters on the edge of collapse, The pimp Eterlimus must face his past, if hes to finally take hold of his destiny, الرواية بطلها قواد يخفي انتقامه من العائلة المالكة لروما في القرن السادس قبل الميلاد.
القصة جيدة والشخصيات وتنوع أنماطهم كذلك لكن الحبكة والسرد بهما من السوء ما لا يمكن تجاهله الأحداث متسارعة بشكل غير مبرر لو أخذ الكاتب وقته وأطال في السرد وعدل من تسلسل الأحداث وأضاف بعض ما لمح إليه ولكنه لم يتطرق بشكل شافي له لكانت الرواية استحقت التقدير بحق!

فكما يتضح أن للكاتب خلفية تاريخية جيدة عن الرومان وطباعهم وطبيعة عيشهم لكنه لم يأخذ وقته كما ذكرت وهذا ما عاب روايته بشكل أساسي.
كما أن بالنص ركاكة لا يمكن إخفاؤها خلف بعض الجمل الجميلة المنمقة والجانب الرومانسي فيها كان برأيي سيئا للغاية وسأعتبر السوء فيه نابعا مجددا من "حشر" الكاتب الرواية في ٢٠٠ صفحة بينما لم يوفيها حقها.

لكن هذا لا يمنع أن بها ايجابيات فوصفه للأماكن مثلا كان رائعا. بصراحة امتعني الكتاب خاصه اني بدءت في قراءته مع بدايتي لمتابعة مسلسل Rome. مرة أخرى أعود وأقول
فكرة الرواية جيدة. وخلفية الكاتب بالتاريخ الروماني ممتازة. لكنني ولأسباب عدة بدت لي ثقيلة جدا. أدرك أن هذا النوع من الكتب يحتاج إلى صبر معين لتميز بين أسماء الشخصيات التي

ربما تسمع بها لأول مرة إن كنت لا تملك الخلفية التاريخية الكاملة.
الشخصيات متشابكة ولو أن الكاتب ميز حواراتها بطريقة ما في الإخراج. أو طريقة التوقف بين الأحداث الصغيرة مثلا. أو حتى في طريقة السرد. لبدت الرواية سلسة.

كان يمكن إخراج الكتاب بشكل أفضل من هذا. .
تشعر بالتفاصيل مزدحمة وتكاد تخرج من الصفحات الضيقة. ي تصوير بدييع لروما في عهد ما قبل الميلاد يحاكي عبدالعزيز حمزة واقعا مريرا حدث ولازال يحدث في عالمنا العربي.
تصوير أكثر من رائع. مفردات فيها شمولية للوصف و لغة بسيطة. تعايش أثناء قراءتك للرواية ذلك الزمان البعيد بكل قيمه و ثوابته.

صراحة ذكرتني كثيرا برائعة البؤساء لفيكتور هوجو. Eterlimus is a historical fiction novel written by Aziz Hamza, a Saudi novelist, and published in both Arabic and English, Its considered as the first novel in Roman history for a Saudi author, What caught my eye was the main characters role: The revolution sparked a wave of anger amongst citizens across the Kingdom after Sextus the Kings son raped the noble woman Lucretia, causing the fall of the last Roman Kingdom inBC.
And the salvation of its citizens by the hands of a pimp called Eterlimus, The premise was intriguing, and the book wasnt that big not your usual Roman history book full of overly complicated language and long descriptions, so Ive decided to give it a try.

Eterlimus himself is introduced as the only member of his family that had survived King Tarquiniuss anger, as hed been rescued by his neighbor, Flavius, Since Flavius was a slave trader, and not just a random one, but a famous man who was trusted by the people, we can imagine how the boy turned out, growing up in such an environment.
Hes become famous among the wealthy of Rome as well, with strong connections among the elite class that eventually had made his house of pleasure a second senate,
The authors style flows naturally and makes it easy to get lost in the story, Ive always loved the theme of Rome, and I think, even back at school, it was the only part of the History course that I actually enjoyed, I wont lie that I care much about all the dates and names and significant historical events, But Ive always found their civilization beautiful and fascinating, and Ive got plenty of Romes air from this book, Only instead of boring historical facts, throw in dark intrigues and cunning characters, and you can imagine what this book is about, I also liked the detail that the author put into every scene,
I think for fans of historical fiction, Eterlimus would make for a perfect weekend read,
I got a copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest review,
I was given this book, by the author, in order for me to review it with an honest oppinion, The story was extremely gripping, I will give it that, It was very historical, and it was clear that the author had researched in detail, Although very common in Roman History, people had very similar names to one another due to family lines, this did confuse the story, . Also, the ending, which could have been happy, was actually very sad and made me feel disappointed, This was particularly as the author was so close to giving Eterlimus a happy ending, However, Hamza's characters were very well mapped out, and I did enjoy the book, إترليموس ليس بطلنا المعتاد والذي نقرأ عنه في قصص الانتقام وغيرها. عائلته قتلت على يد الملك لوسيوس الذي قام بتصفية جميع من يوالي الملك السابقومن ضمنهم والد إترليموس ونجا هو ليقوم جارهم فلافيوس بتبنيه وتربيته وكبر وفكرة الانتقام بعيد كل البعد عن ذهنه ونجح بتموين ثروته بطرق مشروعة وغير مشروعة فهو لا يمانع استخدام اي طريقة من ابتزاز واستغلال ليصل إلي غايته.
حتى جاء ذلك اليوم وقع حدث أشعلت في صدر إترليموس نار الانتقام ويبدأ بالتفكير في الكيفية وهنا نراه أيضا يستخدم طريقا ملتويا ليصل لهدفه!! عموما قصة مثيرة للاهتمام ونجح الكاتب مع قصر حجم الكتاب في ابراز معالم القصة والحضارة الرومانية بشكل كاف لكن الترجمة ركيكة بعض الشي مع عدة أخطاء لغوية أثرت في استمتاعي قليلا أيضا قصة الحب هنا لم ترق لي أبدا لحدوثها بشكل سريع وغير واقعي. .
