Judging from what Lindsey Davis says, it's not just that Simon Scarrow used the characters without permission, but also the way in which he used them (seriously misportraying Geminus and Falco's Ma, by the sound of it).. Having met Lindsey Davis I don't feel she takes herself - or anyone - too seriously, and I can understand her annoyance.

It's a shame to see how what was meant as a compliment turned sour, and I'm also sorry because I'm a fan of both authors.
