Arms of Nemesis (Roma Sub Rosa Series #2) Book

Another fine effort by Saylor. This time we move from Cicero as a client to Gordianus the Finder now finding himself in the employ of the richest man in Rome - Marcus Crassus. We find Gordianus the Finder summoned to the Bay of Naples to investigate the murder of Crassus' cousin Lucius Licinius.
Despite the appearance that Licinius was murdered by slaves, Gordianus is not quite so sure and thus begins the detective mystery. Saylor also provides us with a history lesson of the Servile Wars in Sicily and Rome, along with a host of information on the Sibyl of Cumae, who is a version of the Oracle of Delphi. We get a lot of history, a lot of mystery and intrigue and a wonderful flavor of the Roman Empire at the time of the Spartacan Wars (while Spartacus does not appear in this book, his influence in the slave revolt is the reason for the book).
Had a wonderful time reading and learning more about this time period of 72 BC, as well as a great deal on the true historical figure Crassus.
As always a definite recommend to fans of history and mystery genres.
