4.0 out of 5 stars
Carthage? Iraq? Bosnia? Anywhere.,
This review is from: Carthage (Paperback)
As well as a fine writing style and delicate character and background development, the author brings a wonderfull sense of the timelessness of the clash of nations and empires. The occasional anachronisms in the language give one pause at first but quickly slip into a plan which allows you to imagine Rome in the story standing in for a contemporary Nation or Empire to illustrate the eternal basis for war. Vengance, politics and the economy.
On the other hand it is a well crafted engrossing 'historical' read.
