Shadows in Bronze (Dramatized) Audiobook

" Okay, I didn't actually finish the book. I. love the period, but could neither get interested in the main character nor the mystery. "

" It wasn't bad, the story. But because it was dramatised, there were several voices. The "voice" for Marcus Didius Falco is different than in the first book in the series. I preferred the actor in the first book who sounded more like what I imagined Falco would sound like. However, this story cleans up the "mess" in "The Silver Pigs", the first book. "

" A fun mystery with some nice twists, and definitely an interesting setting. I'll probably continue with the series at some point. "

" Just good fun, am reading the whole series though not easy to get the early volumes "

" Great historical detail and characters. "

" Great mystery set in Ancient Rome. Falco's rugged realism and sarcasm is refreshing and adds to the the multi-layered mystery "

" Again loved the book. Am making my way through all the books. "

" There's nothing wrong with this series, but it just doesn't quite hit the sweet spot for me. "

" This is the first in the Falco series. We meet Marcus Didius falco a Roman Informer. Great books. "

" OK, but a bit predictable in parts. "

" I am really enjoying this series - the writing is witty, the plot is intriguing, and the characters are deeply drawn. I can't wait until I read the next! "

" Aww! A re-read because I've been foisting these on my neighbor. Just as good as the first time. I love Falco and nephew casing the neighborhood by offering guttering for sale. "

" More of Didius Falco and the Senator's Daughter "

" Had lots of trouble getting into this book. I've loved the other ones ... maybe it was just my mood. Finally gave up at the half-way point since my husband wanted to read it. "

" Enjoyable read full of colour and some wonderful turns if phrase. "

" OK, but a bit predictable in parts. "

" Again loved the book. Am making my way through all the books. "

" One major plot point is glaringly obvious, but you get why Falco is unwilling to notice. The rest of it is terrific. "

" Great book, although it took a while to get to the most interesting part (when Helena is in the story). Still, the ending is great and surprising. Great read! "

" I enjoy following Marcus Didius Falco. "

" Still having a good time with detective (informer) Falco.... "

" LJ was blocked at work for a few days, so this is a little delayed. Another fun Roman mystery, though I felt this one went on a little longer than it needed to. Still, I like the characters, and am attached to them already! "

" A fun mystery with some nice twists, and definitely an interesting setting. I'll probably continue with the series at some point. "

" This is one of the few mystery series I have read where the plot almost doesn't seem to matter--I enjoy hanging out with Falco, his dysfunctional family and friends, and the lovely Helena Justina that it almost doesn't matter that the plot is often hard to figure out... "

" Had lots of trouble getting into this book. I've loved the other ones ... maybe it was just my mood. Finally gave up at the half-way point since my husband wanted to read it. "

" Revisiting an old favorite over the holidays--historical details, modern sensibility, sleuth cracks wise, the Empire is saved. "
