Just wondering if anyone here has gotten into the Lindsey Davis novels about the above character? She puts an extensive amount of research into her books, and I have found them to be fantastic reads. The protagonist, Falco, is an "informer", a sort of 1st century detective employed by Vespasian. Her style or writing is very good, giving Falco a sort of Sam Spade persona.
I'm sure some here have read them, but if you haven't give her books a try. I believe the first novel in the series is "Iron Hand of Mars", but each is pretty much self supporting, so they do not need to be read in series.
