Reviews
"An absolutely marvelous book, even better than I Am Livia...Phyllis T. Smith is a remarkable and sophisticated writer who truly breathes life into her characters and her era. A masterful work." -Reading the Ages "I found myself absolutely in the thrall of this book from the moment I opened it up." -Precious Books and Baubles "Smith brings ancient Rome to life...An excellent follow-up to her first novel, I Am Livia." -Historical Novels Review Praise for I Am Livia: "Highly polished and compelling...seamlessly written...[Phyllis T. Smith] offers a richness of historical detail..." -Publishers Weekly "I Am Livia is a wonderful journey to ancient Rome that provides amazing, thoughtful insight into one of its most influential and unconventional citizens...Smith's Livia is such a dynamic character, so approachably human, at times fearless and forceful but also merciful and just...The historical backdrop of Rome becomes more accessible, less academic, when seen through the lives of Smith's characters." -Historical Novels Review
