The Temple of Fortuna
by Elodie Harper
"She sees a woman who understands that being nice will not get you very far in a world that is anything but."
I enjoyed this book so much! I was afraid that the development of the character would get stale after three books, but it didn’t. The journey of Amara kept on bringing me from one side of ancient Italy to the other, with twists I could never imagine. I’ll to to keep the review spoiler free - but I just have to write something about Philos. This character is a lighthouse, every scene in which he wasn’t present, I’d just be waiting for him to enter. The way he is structured and the ending he gets! Just so heartwarming. My second favorite was of course Britannica, she’s just hilarious in her seriousness.
The whole series is brilliantly written, the words flow easily without there being too much description or too little. There are absolutely zero historical inaccuracies, so this was very much pleasant to read: it really felt like following the story of a bold greek-pompeian woman.
The only thing that would make this book perfect is a change of antagonist. After three books he gets what he deserves, but it would have been so refreshing to see Amara fight another kind of man/danger.
