“Augustus was brilliantly done by the author. His thoughts, motivations and life were so clear. I could see and understand his personality perfectly… I found myself so interested in what I did learn that I’m anxious to find many more books about this time period, culture and family. I have a couple books that I’ve put off reading that I’m anxious to read now, so this book has definitely inspired me. I am very excited for the next book, Song of the Nile! I give this one 5/5 moons.” Candace’s Book Blog

This book was dense, meaning rich with detail and story lines…I enjoyed every moment of reading this book and can’t wait for the next one in the trilogy!” Kelly’s Lucky You
