The Thracian, feeling betrayed, leads a mutiny against Glaber, and returns to find his village destroyed. Glaber is persuaded by his wife Ilithyia to seek greater glory, decides to break off attacking the Getae and directly confront the forces of Mithridates in Asia Minor.

The Getae frequently raid the Thracians’ lands, so the Thracians are persuaded by Glaber to enlist in the Romans’ service as auxiliaries. In 72-71 BC, Roman general Marcus Terentius Varro Lucullus, proconsul of the Roman province of Macedonia, marched against the Getae, who were allies of Rome’s enemy, Mithridates VI of Pontus. Story….The story begins with an unnamed Thracian’s involvement in a unit of Roman auxiliary in a campaign against the Getae (Thracian tribes that occupied the regions of the Lower Danube, in what today is Bulgaria and Romania, ancestors of Romanians) under the command of the legatus, Claudius Glaber. Starring: Andy Whitfield, Lucy Lawless, Manu Bennett For a low budget with computer graphics, after the first weaker episode, the show becomes so realistic, by episode 4 it has griped me in its razor sharp clutches and the downward spiral of darkness is leaving bloody marks on my soul! If you like it you will love it, if you don't like it you will hate it.Spartacus: Blood and Sand S01 Eng Complete WEB Series 720p BluRay ESub x265 HEVC It is raw bloody entertainment! This show is so unique, it is in a category with THE WIRE, thought they have noting in common and their uniqueness lies in completely different places, they are bot light years away of what is being made. The first episode is the weakest, but by episode 4 which i just saw i am swearing by all the Roman Gods that this is what i was born to watch. It is not a soup opera and if you are one of those people that got excited by a show like CAPRICA skip this one. It is brutal and it is one of the best shows out there.

Why am i so excited by it then: For the ones that want to see fights, blood, brutality, sex, men looking like gods, blood, erotica, excitement, blood, swearing, allot of skulls being bashed, sweat, savagery, arena fights, honor, friendships intrigues, assassinations, and lets not forget some more blood, this is a show for you. If you are under 16 you should not watch it. This is not a series for everyone and many people will find a lot in it offensive.
