Lindsay Davis à Historical Mysteries (Décembre 2015)

Critiques

Very much a continuation of the previous Falco and Flavia Alba books dealing with Roman crime families.

More sarf london gangster turf war set in Flavian Rome. It was quite a dark read; I've noticed Lindsey Davies has been trending darker since her hubby died a few years ago. Still fun, especially when Falco and Petro pay a visit to a brothel; which turns out to be Lalage's place.

Recommended, but it helps to understand the background of the gangs which means reading at least 2 Falcos (Time to Depart, A Body in the Bath-house) as well of at least one previous Flavia Alba (Pandora's Boy).… (plus d'informations)

I thought I might like this series, but unfortunately, it became overwhelmingly boring. I was listening to the audio audiobook but kept having to rewind as my mind was wandering. DNF at about 46%... just too tedious.

Nice listen, but also nothing special there. I at times had serious doubts about the historical accuracy, but I might stille take on more in the future.
