The Venus Throw: A Mystery of Ancient Rome (Novels of Ancient Rome) 30 reviews Steven Saylor
St. Martin's Paperbacks, 1996
One of the best historical mystery writers out there!
+ Gordianus' Discoveries about Gender + Fourth Book in the Series
There are only a handful of historical mystery writers who have the knack of putting their readers right into the time and place that they are creating. I would count Steven Saylor as one of those. Others that come to mind are Ellis Peters and her Brother Cadfael series, Conan Doyle and Sherlock ...
