La conspiración de Catilina

The depiction of Roman politics feels vivid, but I wonder how much was shaped by creative license versus historical sources. Did the author prioritize accuracy or storytelling flow?

The characters felt complex and morally gray, which made me question how much loyalty or desperation influences decisions in times of upheaval. Was that intentional?

The event is less commonly explored than other Roman history periods, so I'm curious what drew the author to this particular moment and its potential for storytelling.
