Review: A good story, but the poor proof-reading was annoying.

Having 'taken a punt' and invested $2.99 for the Kindle version, I enjoyed the story (although I found having a Parthian involved in the Spartacus revolt somewhat had to swallow), but found the poor proof-reading even harder to swallow. I would have deducted 1/2 a point for that, if I could.Kindle authors can amend their books any time, and I suggest that Mr Darman spends a couple of days re-reading the Kindle version to get rid of those many annoying errors.Having read all of the books in this series, the characters are good and are developed over the series.  The books follow on in series in an interesting manner. I would have to say that having finished one book, I then promptly downloaded the next.Not in the same class as Paul Doherty or Bernard Cornwell, but good.Readers may like to look atMurder in the Palacefor a good Ancient Egyptian Murder/Mystery series andWolves in Armour: Norman Conquest Novels- Book 1 (Volume 1)- the latter is a comparable book to that of Mr Darman, set in the Norman conquest of England.
