A review by emilyowen88
Empire, by Steven Saylor

3.0

I have to say, I picked this because it was the second in the series (following Roma) that I got on offer from Kindle books. I wasn't the biggest fan of the first one, but wanted something unchallenging to relax to and this fits the bill. I preferred this one as it covers a better known period of history than the first, but it is still a rather superficial historical fiction novel. I did want to get to the end and it provided a few laughs, but I wouldn't rely on this for your dose of reliable history!
