Good Tale, Well Told, Not So,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The TRIUMPH. (Hardcover)
If you are looking for a fully accurate novelization of the later part of the Roman Emperor Vespasian's reign, pass this one up. There are some inaccuracies. (One of the book's key characters died before the time this novel starts; and Domitian seems to have saved his villainy until well into his reign.) Vespasian is very well done, the action and suspense are well maintained, and you'll be surprised what character meets death with Roman dignity and aplomb. Proof, if needed, that Gann didn't need a ship or an airplane to turn out a good read.
