Another in a very enjoyable and informative series. The mystery is less the focus than the history of Caesar and Cleopatra. But that makes it no less interesting.

It's 48 B.C. history altering events take place with strategic battles, intrigue, and romance between Ceasar and Cleopatra, while Egypt is ravaged by this brutal contest between Cleopatra and Ptolemy.
Protaganist Gordianus is in the middle again.

I've read all of Saylor's book in this series to this point. In some ways I get a bit tired of reading about Gordianus the Finder, and I keep putting off reading another book. But when I do pick up the next one I find myself quickly enthralled and can barely put it down.

I may be wrong, but I suspect Saylor meant for this book to be the last in the series. The next book jumps back in time to an earlier period in Gordianus's life. I say this due to something which occurs at the end of this book. But I won't tell you what it is. Perhaps Saylor was giving himself a possible out if he decided to pick up with the lives of Gordianus and his extended family. However, it appears the next two books continue with the events after this book.

I am listing all the books in Steven Saylor's Rosa sub Roma series except the last one, which is on my wish list! This was a very enjoyable series...well written, educational (at least for me who previously had no interest in ancient Rome) and fun to see the progression of Gordianus the Finder's life.

You may want to order all of them because they're a fast read and, to me anyway, very addictive.

Saylor never disappoints
