Danny Yee's Book Reviews Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest Catilina's Riddle Steven Saylor Ivy Books 1993 Amazon A book review by Danny Yee Catilina's Riddle is the third in a series of historical mystery novels featuring Gordianus the Finder. This time the background is the "conspiracy" of Catilina, and the mystery component is confined to a rather uninteresting subplot, with the confrontation between Cicero and Catilina taking most of the attention. Mostly this is described third hand in set piece speeches reported by messengers, and so lacks any kind of immediacy. The result is not terribly engaging as a novel, and will probably really only appeal to those with an interest in the history. (This is, strangely enough, quite the opposite to Arms of Nemesis , the preceding novel in the series.) The basic thesis of Catilina's Riddle is that Catalina has received a bad press from historians, who haven't been sceptical enough of the rather biased portrayals of Cicero and Sallust. It's not a complete whitewash, however, and (though I'm no expert on the period) seems like a rather plausible reconstruction of events. Of course (as Saylor discusses in an Author's Note) this idea is not novel and has been covered in the technical literature, and the student of history may prefer to look there. Catalina's Riddle is an uneasy amalgam of genres and is not going to be a great success as a popular mystery paperback, which is what it is being marketed as.

Danny Yee's Book Reviews Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest The Silver Pigs Lindsey Davis Pan Books 1990 Amazon Arms of Nemesis Steven Saylor Ballantine Books 1992 Amazon A book review by Danny Yee The Silver Pigs and Arms of Nemesis are both mystery novels set in ancient Rome. The Silver Pigs is a fast-paced political and underworld thriller whose hero is one Marcus Didius Falco, a private informer tracking down a conspiracy against Vespasian in 70 A.D. Arms of Nemesis is a more classical murder mystery set during the Spartacist revolt in 70 B.C., with Crassus as one of the main characters. Both Davis and Saylor write cleanly and engagingly but, while they have done their historical research accurately enough, neither of them really shines as a historical novelist; the setting is used more for effect than anything else, and the dialogue, plotting and characterisation could just as well be set in 20th century London. The Silver Pigs and Arms of Nemesis will appeal to devotees of detective fiction rather than lovers of historical novels. Both novels are part of an ongoing series, so there is more available for those who enjoy these. 30 June 1994 External links: The Silver Pigs - buy from Amazon.com

E-mail us Roman Blood Steven Saylor REVIEW Rating: 4 (Very good) G ordianus the Finder is a Roman private eye circa 80 BC, who makes a living gathering evidence for the lengthy court cases so beloved of his era. One hot day, he is called to aid a neophyte advocate named Cicero, who is defending a man charged with that most serious of ancient crimes, parricide. The accused will say little in his own defence and hired killers dog the footsteps of all potential witnesses to the crime. The further Gordianus digs into this complex case, the more layers of "truth" are uncovered and the more danger threatens his own household. The plot is well-planned and reasonably fair to those who are familiar with the milieu. The author is plainly fascinated with the era and has done a lot of homework; but this book is uneasily balanced between the genres of historical fiction and crime fiction. I hesitate to mention genre boundaries because in general I don't believe in them; but in this case the reader should be aware that the book is extremely slow-paced for a mystery, and rather clumsy for a historical novel. In sum, Mr. Saylor's work is intelligent, well researched, deliberate, and written in thoughtful prose. However, it made my spine itch with impatience throughout I kept skipping ahead to find some action, and then forcing myself to go back (but only because I was obligated to review the book; otherwise, I would just have skimmed the whole thing). This book is like creamed spinach: it's unclear whether it's really good, or whether you convince yourself it's good because it's so patently good for you.

From Publishers Weekly From Library Journal From Booklist Emily Melton From Kirkus Reviews Ingram While keeping watch on a radical populist senator for his mentor, Cicero, Gordianus finds a headless corpse in his stables, in a story of conspiracy and murder set in ancient Rome. Reprint. AB. PW. From the Publisher My high school Latin teacher Sister Ethelreda, are you out there in cyberspace? enthralled her class for four years with her tales of ancient Rome, from culinary trivia to the deeds of the noble generals and the great Roman patriots. It was her hope, as she said, not only to teach us this beautiful language but to be able to bring to life for us the people who formed the vibrant culture that was Rome's. I heard an echo of her words many years later when I read THE FAR ARENA, in which the protagonist wished earnestly to be able to turn a doorknob in time and find the Roman behind the door.
