Caesar's Comet: The Politics and Poetics of an Augustan Myth by Robert A. Gurval

I just got done reading one of the best books about Caesar's Comet. I really wanted to recommend this book, it is one of the best books I have ever read. I want to consider this an official religious text of the Temple of the Comet.

The book is called "Caesar's Comet: The Politics and Poetics of an Augustan Myth" by Robert A. Gurval

The best book I have read so far about "Caesar's Comet".

""The site where a comet was worshiped in Rome is the Temple of Divus Iulius, vowed by the joint edeavors of the Triumvirs in 42 B.C. but dedicated thirteen years later by the singular efforts of Octavian following his triumphal return to the city in August of 29." - Caesar's Comet by Robert A. Gurval

So you can see why it's called "Temple of the Comet" it's the "Temple of Julius Caesar".
