Quote:I visited your website and we share the same interest for historical fiction. I just started in Scott Oden's "Memnon"
I will order Gladiatrix very soon.
Did you read David Anthony Durham's "Hannibal, Pride of Carthage" ?? One of the best i ever read.
kind regards
Hi Marcus - thanks so much." Medusa wrote a review of it for this website in the books section, so I guess you can "try before you buy" there. If you go for it, I really hope you enjoy "Gladiatrix!"
Memnon is a great read - Scott was kind enough to give me a cover quote, as was Simon Scarrow which is so awesome for a newbie like me.
Yes, I have read "Pride of Carthage" which I thought was brilliant as well.

I can't thank you enough for all this great help, Hoplite - you're a star, it's much appreciated.
