A review by traveller1
The Temple of the Muses by John Maddox Roberts

4.0

Decius in Alexandria. I enjoyed this more than his Rome setting novels. Perhaps I just prefer Alex to Rome? A philosopher is killed, however, he is a pragmatic phil, selling his skills as a weapon designer to the Parthian king, and involving himself in a potential war. Decius skilfully unravels and all is more or less well.
