Title: Should have been called Hannibal II - The sequel
Review: I thought this was a book about Scipio Africanus ? Instead all I get from this book is "That Hannibal, he was fantastic wasn't he ? Certainly better than this Roman guy who defeated him." Less time spent on how all Romans were scumbags and more time on Scipio himself, what he actually did and how he went about doing it and this may have been worth reading. I was hoping this book would help contribute to the essay I have to submit on the Second Punic War. After reading this I would suggest Leckie might be better informed by reading my essay. Won't be buying the third book I'm afraid.
