About this listen

 It is the Roman holiday of Saturnalia. The days are short, the nights are for wild parties. A general has captured a famous enemy of Rome, and brings her home to adorn his Triumph as a ritual sacrifice. But the logistics go wrong.©2014 Audible, Inc. (P)2014 Audible, Inc.

Critic Reviews

"As always, the shrewd and outspoken Falco is helped by his headstrong wife, Helena Justina, and hindered by nefarious Anacrites, Rome's Chief Spy. Davis serves up a huge cast of characters and colorful descriptions of daily life in first-century Rome, details sure to please readers with an affinity for ancient history." ( Booklist)

Always enjoy this series and this one is no different. The power is as much in the twists of the plot as in the detailed description of Ancient Rome and the vivid imagery created for the reader by Davis's prose.

Thoroughly loved this book, a great adventure with everything the preceding couple of books in this series seemed to lack.
A gripping tale well narrated that I could lose myself back in ancient Rome.

Please stop bunching the chapters together in great big lots. Please follow the the authors original chapters. It makes it easier for the listener to find their place if they loose it.
