One thought on “Falco writer Lindsey Davis’s top 10 Roman books”
I have just borrowed The Capricorn Bracelet form the Library and now I need to read all of Rosemary Sutcliff’s books again. I read some as a child, 40 years ago but I didn’t know how many there were. I shall spend this year making every effort to read them. I have the whole Eagle of the Ninth series on order at the Library too. It wasn’t until recently that I thought to google Sutcliff without an ‘e’ and learned about her very interesting life.
