What a fun read. Each of these short stories are packed with historical detail, observations and characters true to human life, and a bit of humor as well.  Quite a few stories deal with critical turning points in Roman history, several told from the perspective of seemingly unimportant characters that end up as the pivot points for critical decisions. Love the muscular language, just right for the action and dialog. Well done, I'll now be signing up for the books.
