Title: It was the best of times and the worst of times in Rome!
Review: Saylor makes history fun in his exciting novel "Muder On the Appian Way." Combining the ancient culture of Rome with an adventuous and creative storyline makes learning more enjoyable. I thought that, like the prequel "Catalina's Riddle", Saylor's book was fun and unpredictable. The story keeps you guessing at who was where, when and why! The story kept me wanting to read because I truely felt like I connected in some way to the book. Every time Bethesda, the mother of Eco, Meto and Diana and wife of Gordianus, is brought up in the story, she always reminds me of my own mother. - caring and occasionally worrisome. Saylor not only provided a great mystery story, he also developed the characters to a point where you, the reader, can almost feel like they know the person. I would definately reccomend this book and any of Steven Saylor's book to anyone!
