The Secret History by Prokopios

2.0

I'm halfway tempted to describe this as fiction- it really does read more like a political hit piece than an actual history of the reign of Justinian. Despite that, it IS an entertaining read. The picture Procopius paints of the Byzantine imperial court has a definite salacious appeal. Though I believe very, very little of what he has to say about Theodora.
