(3) 4-6 When Roman slave Nic finds an amulet that once belonged to Julius Caesar, he develops magical powers that allow him to trade his dismal life in the mines for the pleasures of Rome. Unfortunately, his new powers also entangle him in imperial politics and land him in the gladiator's ring. The premise is a stretch, but this fast-paced historical fantasy will draw in readers.
