Acerca de esta escucha

It is 73 AD in Ancient Rome and inimitable sleuth Marcus Didius Falco is back with a vengeance. In one night, a man is killed and Rome's Chief of Spies left for dead. Naturally there is no one except Falco to conduct the investigation. Soon he is plunged into the fiercely competitive world of olive oil production. Political intrigue, an exotic Spanish dancer and impending fatherhood, all add to Falco's troubles.

I have read this series for many years and it is interesting to see how the fortunes (and character) of Marcus Didius Falco progresses. The narrator gets the sometimes world-weary Falco's moods over extremely well. The everyday life of Romans is painted well and the inclusion of Roman notables is handled well. Will continue to get as many of this series as I can.

A new slant on the Romans

The birth of Helena's first child is imminent and she and Falco are far from home investigating the attacks made on two of the guests after leaving a dinner for olive oil importers in Rome. One, like Falco, had been a freelance informer, the other was none other than the chief spy himself, Anacrotes. The race is on. Will Falco solve the mystery of the hand behind the attacks before his child is born, or will his vow to be at Helena's side become another broken promise?

The Falco series are always a delight. Read in print form years ago, I am reprising them in audio format and taking great pleasure from the reaquaintance. Set in AD 73, with Vespasian on the imperial throne, the pleasures come not just from the murder mysteries but also the ongoing lives of Falco and his Helena, and with the countyside, habits and everyday life in the Roman Empire. Not one of my favourite Falco stories but still well worth reading for anyone enjoying novels set in this period and narration by Richard Midgely very good.

" The love he felt for her."

The narator was good , The story was very good, you really need to read all the books from the beginning to understand the story line though.

I’ve been enjoying this series a lot. The characters are fun, the politics are, well, politics, and they never change. The back-stabbing never changes. The motto “trust no one” is definitely valid. The narrator for this episode was good, but does not measure up to the other narrators this series has had, and I’m glad to see that it is a one time casting. It would not keep me from enjoying the rest of the series, but a great narrator always enhances the listening pleasure.

Great series, narrator not quite as good
