A review by allison_21
Roman Blood by Steven Saylor
4.0
I picked up this book because it was on my parents' bookshelf, and I know it was enjoyed as they seem to have the rest of the series (or at least most of it). I wasn't too sure how a mystery novel set in ancient Rome would work, but Steven Saylor manages to make the story easy to follow and enjoy despite the far-removed setting.
The solution to the mystery itself became increasingly obvious as the novel progressed, but the character building throughout the book kept it interesting even though main plot points had already been revealed.
Overall, I enjoyed this book and will be borrowing more of the series from my parents in the future.
