Title: Decent historical-novel writing
Product review: No synopsis here. Ms. Bradshaw's novel once again shows her restrained and capable prose hand, as well as her sense for sensible narrative and historical accuracy (as for this genre). Let's face it: life in (Roman) antiquity wasn't all full of sex and violence with iron implements - much as that may disappoint the Braveheart crowd - , and there's little point in writing novels that purport to show what history would have been like, and have them be deliberately distorted. A very definite thumbs-up for this fine effort!
