tessisreading2 's review for:
Semper Fidelis
by Ruth Downie
Another fun outing for Ruso and Tilla. I do find the light, modern tone of these novels occasionally a little jarring: would the ancient Romans really have called something , or is that a "modern translation" that sounds super-modern? Did Roman hospitals really work the way they're described or is there some present-projection-into-the-past going on? I can happily believe that I underestimate the modernity of ancient Rome in some ways, but sometimes it just feels implausible, whether or not that's correct.
