4.0 out of 5 stars Poseedon's Gold dramatization, August 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Poseidon's Gold: A BBC Full-Cast Radio Drama (A Marcus Didius Falco Mystery) (Audio CD)
This is not the best of the five books dramatized and doesn't stand up well unless you have heard the prior 4 stories: "Silver Pigs","Shadows in Bronze", "Venus in Copper" and The "The Iron Hand of Mars." Like all fictional series, the characters grow and develop with each story.

Linsey Davis has written about 17 of the Didius Falco informer (dectective) stories. Unfortunately, the BBC has only done full cast dramatizations of the first 5 books. I find them a lot of fun because although the stories were abridged, you don't loose the spirit or essentials of the story. These stories give you a good feeling of what it must have been like to live in the Roman Empire in the time of the Emperor Vespasian (around 70 AD).
