A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum: Murder in Ancient Rome by Emma Southon

funny informative reflective fast-paced

3.75

This was a tad too informal for my personal reading taste, but I can see how this prose style would make ancient Rome and the macabre topic at hand more accessible to a broader spectrum of readers.

Loved how it covered a wide range of topics, not just the Big Famous Murders.
