Negative Positive
Title: not good
Review: I would have liked to give this book a 2.5, but that option is not available & it's not good enough for a 3. That said, I am an enormous fan of Paul Doherty, but not of this particular series. His more recent series with Alexander is far, far better. There are just too many historical inaccuracies and too much license taken with actual historical facts. Miriam (the detective) is a dreary, drab, unbelievable little squab of a character (Jews at the court of Philip? Female at that? I doubt it!!).However, Paul Doherty is a wonderful writer and I would give everything else I have read by him a 4.5 or 5.
Is the review positive or negative?
