I love the complexity of Amara’s character, how she is both a victim and an incredibly calculated woman who will put others in harms way. She is someone who knows she must use everything she can to gain her freedom and I respect her for that. All of the women of the den felt nuanced and real, I adored Victoria, Dido, Cressa and Beronice. Despite knowing it wasn’t realistic I was compelled to hope they would all find happier lives. The men were just as complicated but in a far more sinister way, especially Felix. Amazing storytelling.

A great book for everyone who's interested in the parts of Roman society which are not usually looked at. The love for details (architecture, social rules, graphities, etc.) in this book is incredible!
Graphic: Emotional abuse, Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Slavery, Suicide, Sexual harassment
Moderate: Adult/minor relationship, Toxic relationship, Death of parent, Pregnancy
Minor: Child death, Abortion
Having an idea of how the Romans viewed slaves and slavery before starting this book might help to deside whether this is a book one would like to read and how much the aspects mentioned in the content warnings might affect oneself.
