I finished the book several days ago and absolutely loved it. In my review, I gave it 3 out of 4 stars. The only reasons I took away a star were that at some points the language in the book seemed awkward and forced, especially in the more intimate scenes. The other reason was that 'somehow' modern words sneaked into 24 A.D.! I don't think they knew what "shenanigans" or "hooligans" were back then, for instance. Otherwise I found nothing not to like! Character development went above and beyond and I loved that the book featured strong women characters. In all, a great read! Definitely recommended.gali wrote: ↑31 Aug 2018, 23:36 This is a discussion topic for the September 2018 Book of the Month, "Apollo's Raven" by Linnea Tanner.
