Elections come, elections go. But one fateful election echoes to this day in the corridors of power from Boston to Berlin.The candidate had that perfect combination of brains, personality, and a psychological cunning which would first astonish, then intimidate, then finally terrify a whole generation of alpha males. The key to his electoral success was his uncanny ability to exploit all the machinery of popular government and turn it to his personal advantage every step of the way.Charm he had in abundance. Men were amazed by his dramatic rise to power. Women were captivated by a male charisma they could not ignore or resist. The voters were overawed by a man whom the gods seemed to bless with every lucky break a human being could desire.This novel attempts to reconstruct for the first time the inside story of that election -- including the role of the ladies. Skorpio Rising is a translation into words of a complex series of events. No doubt the real 'truth' about these events may have eluded the author just as it eluded the participants in this intriguing story.The time is 60 B.C. The place: Rome. The candidate: Gaius Julius Caesar.
