A bit of a twist on the Do You Read Novels?
Okay, so I'm desperate to find a cracking novel written about the Roman Empire. But every time I find myself nit-picking about the history, and it ruins the enjoyment. The only authors of Roman historicals I can say I love is Rosemary Sutcliff and Robert Graves. Now, I don't have this problem with medieval, Victorian or even HF set in prehistory. It's just Roman (I love Ancient Greek HF too.)
Anyone else suffer from this?
