A review by claudiap
O Lance de Vénus by Steven Saylor

2.0

I read this book as part of the second task of Book Riot's 2018 Read Harder Challenge (#A book of true crime). This was the second book I read of this series, and it was undoubtedly the weaker of the two. In this book the Gordianus is a mere spectator of the unfolding story. The characters are uninteresting and the speeches of the Roman court very extensive. The end also left me unsatisfied.
