This book is one of those that you will not be able to put down. I read and was filled with the story and could not help but to engorge myself until I could not keep my eyes open any longer. The story is all consuming, my only gripe is the explicitness of intimate moments. I feel it was not necessary for the story to be as engrossing as it was.Ms. Borchardt is a great writer without need of overt physical material to compensate.

This is the first in the trilogy. But I just could not get into this series. It seems crazy to say, but there was just too much detail, too much history that got in the way of the actual story. I wanted to read the story, not a history of the roman empire!

A romantic werewolf novel set in Roman times. It's not historically accurate - anachronisms abound, particularly in characters' attitudes and the way they behave. It's also written, it seems, with a screenplay in mind. I could almost feel like I was watching it on late night TV, right after Buffy or something. But, that said, I thought it was good fun & quite entertaining.

Kind of vampire-ish, can be bloody but also historical, cool blend!
