Roman Mysteries - the first 3 books,
This review is from: Roman Mysteries Omnibus (The Roman Mysteries) (Paperback)
For those who have never read any of The Roman Mysteries by Caroline Lawrence, this is a great place to begin. Here the first three books have been combined in one title: 1. THE THIEVES OF OSTIA The first book sets the scene of how life was like in the tumultuous 1st century AD. The main character Flavia finds the friends that are to accompany her on their first adventure 2. THE SECRETS OF VESUVIUS The second book begins with Jonathan, Flavia, Lupus and Nubia staying at Flavia's uncle's farm. That sounds fine...except the year is 79 AD and they are near Mount Vesuvius before it blows. Animals act strangely and birds mysteriously die as a warning of what is about to come. Added to that children are also going missing. Flavia and the others get firmly engaged into discovering what is really going on and in saving people from the volcano when it finally explodes. 3. THE PIRATES OF POMPEII Just as with modern disasters, refugees from the eruption at Pompeii find themselves aving to find shelter in refugee camps. The young heroes also have to deal with a mystery as to why children are going missing. The three books are well researched and great entertainment . Other books which 'Roman Mysteries' fans would probably like are: Godstone - The Kairos Boxes Gulliver's Travels (Barnes & Noble Classics)
