Als er sich jedoch einem Befehl des Feldherren Gaius Claudius Glaber widersetzt, nimmt dieser ihn gefangen - Spartacus soll in der Galdiatorenarena sein Leben verlieren. Wider Erwarten überlebt der Hühne den Kampf auf Leben und Tod und wird an das Ausbildungslager von Batiatus verkauft. Hier muss er sich ständig gegen neue Gegner bewähren, doch er hat auch Verbündete. Anfangs hält ihn nur ein Gedanke am Leben: Seine ebenfalls als Sklavin verkaufte Frau Sura wieder zu sehen.

Betrayed by his country. Beaten into slavery. Reborn as a warrior. Spartacus is a graphic and visceral account of Rome's most famous gladiator. When he is separated from the love of his life, Spartacus is forced into the gruesome and bloodthirsty arena, where a grisly death is primetime entertainment. Spartacus must fight for survival, befriend his enemies and play politics in this new world of corruption, violence, sex and fame. He will be seduced by power and tormented by vengeance. But his passion will give him the strength to prevail over every obstacle, in this modern and uninhibited tale of death, honour and endurance.
