by Colleen McCullough.

It is book two of her Masters of Rome series, and a little more than 800 pages long. I love fat books!

There are seven books in this series. I thought they might be confusing, with so many characters, but they are not. She brings Rome to life.

The library has been holding this book for me for all the time we have been under the stay at home restrictions. Last week, they opened for curbside service. Someone came out and retrieved my huge sack of books that I have finished reading, and brought this book out to me. We can request books now, and pick them up at the curb. I am glad they have found a way to get back into service.

Some more of our restrictions are due to be lifted in two weeks. I am not sure I will be spending any time inside the library, regardless. The less exposure to people the better.
