About Spartacus: Gods of the Arena
Before Spartacus struck down his first opponent in the arena, there were many gladiators who passed through the gates onto the sand. Gods of the Arena tells of the original Champion of the House of Batiatus: Gannicus, in a more ruthless time before Spartacus' arrival where honor was just finding its way into the arena.
