addictive

I listened to this in the car with my son in a drive from DC to Buffalo and the time just flew past. you learn so much but this feels as if the narrator is telling you a story over a couple of beers. great series.

Wonderful depth!

Loved this from beginning to end. One of the most thorough looks at Roman history beginning to end that I’ve encountered.
