Product Description

Review
Caroline Lawrence will be interviewed on CCBC digital channel programme XChange on 8th January 2003 - shown early in the morning and repeated at lunchtime. Caroline Lawrence is writing a short story for the next issue of Aquila magazine. Whole page feature in Young Writer Magazine Review in The Sunday Times, 1st Dec:"Word of mouth recommendations, and school visits by the author, who describes such fascinating props as the sponge on a stick that the Romans used to wipe their bottoms, have made Caroline Lawrence's Roman Mysteries into one of the success stories of the year. Her novels...are informed by her scholarly knowledge of the classics. Her latest and darkest is The Assassins ofRome." Nicolette Jones

The Sunday Times
'Word is spreading about Caroline Lawrence's Roman Mysteries set in ancient Italy.'

5.0 out of 5 stars The Assasins of Rome, 16 Jan 2003
By M. J. Tittensor (Cambridge, Cambs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Another Roman mystery arises! Set in 79 A.D, 3 months after the erruption of vesuvius.

Johnathon has had a birthday. He is deeply distressed when he finds out that an assasin is headed for his father! The assasin tells Johnathon that his dead Mother may still be alive! Now his friends, Flavia and Nubia face a tough decision, to follow Johnathon, or wait for Flavia's father, Marcus Flavia Geminia, to return to Ostia for adult advice?

A thrilling book, and historically correct. The character's have developed a lot from the first three books in this stunning series. I would thoroughly recomend this book to people who like mysteries. This book is the best Caroline Lawrence book yet and is aimed for the teenage years (12 - 15).

5.0 out of 5 stars Review for The Assassins of Rome, 6 Dec 2002
I am 16 and still found this book exciting despite being slightly above the age it is aimed at. It has a gripping story-line which will thrill any young reader, and is full of lots of surprises as well as being educational and historically accurate. It is a unique adventure story with the added interest of being set in Ancient Rome. Well worth the read, a perfect present, I thoroughly recommend it.

This wonderful Roman Mystery is probably the best yet. Johnathen is in search for his mother. Will he find her? If he does what will he do? Read more
