I know it’s supposed to be a children’s book, but I am listening to this as an adult and totally loving it, it brings life in Roman times alive!

Loving this series

Seems like a good book. Good plot and characters, interesting storyline and good Narration. Have also enjoyed others in this series despite being an adult. However, less than a third of the way through this book it just stopped playing and won't play anymore despite several attempts so I can't recommend it from Audible.
