    The SPQR Roman Mysteries
  

*by M***C on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2014*

My husband Brian is loving this series of books (I think there are 13).  He can't put them down.  He finds them fascinating, the story line is great, and from time-to-time I hear him laughing out loud while he reads parts of the book.  Based on his enjoyment, and of course his love for anything Rome or Roman, we would recommend this series of books.

    Decius' Mistakes
  

*by O***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2011*

The story begins with Decius Caecilius Metellius the Younger traveling to Gaul to join Caesar in his war with the Helvetii.  Decius is also anxious to be away from Rome as his mortal enemy, Claudius, has become a high official with the authority (in Rome only) to arrest and convict without appeal.Decius has a slow start in his assignment with Caesar's Tenth Legion.  While the entire legion is wearing casual field attire, he arrives in a fancy parade uniform which leads to much kidding.  Then he interferes with a centurion disciplining his troops.  By long tradition, an officer never interferes with a centurion.  Caesar disciplines him with extra duty.  Later, without authorization, he replaces that centurion's guard with some of his own cavalry troops.  For that infraction Caesar considers serious punishment.  As a result of his own errors,  the entire 10th Legion thinks Decius is a fool and distrusts him.  Decius is his own worst enemy.Finally, the legion's 1st Spear, the ranking centurion in the legion, is killed, and Caesar assigns Decius to investigate and find the guilty parties.  If he doesn't, then eight of the centurions men will be executed.  One of the eight's family is a client of Decius' family, so family honor is at risk.Decius discovers that the crime is complex.  There are many suspects, as the victim is a Centurion who was hated by many.  The Centurion was unusually cruel to his own men, which made him feared and despised.  Even the nearby Helvetii and Germans become prime suspects.  Decius fears that he may not be up to the job.Nobody Loves a Centurion displays John Maddox Roberts' knowledge of the inner working of Roman Legions.  The detailed description of Legion communications, fortifications, and chain of command is impressive.  As a military veteran, I felt at home in the10th Legion, as most of their procedures, organization and culture are still active in modern armies.Decius uses investigative techniques that are foreign to the legion, so he meets resistence but solves the crime.  The ending is complete and satisfying but surprising, even to Decius.  This historical novel is excellent.  I highly recommend Nobody Loves a Centurion.

    Murder and intrigue in the Army of Julius Caesar
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2010*

In this superb novel, the sixth of the "SPQR" series, Decius Caecilius Metellus the Younger finds himself serving as a junior officer in the Army of Julius Caesar in Gaul.  Surrounded by hostile Gallic and German tribes, deep in "uncivilized" country far from Rome, the army is in a precarious position. Decius, no seeker of military glory, is less than sanguine about his prospects.  Can things get worse?  Well, yes.  The Legion's most hated Centurion is found murdered, and Caesar himself commissions Decius, who has a reputation as an accomplished "snooper," to get to the bottom of it.  If he does not, Caesar will execute the men under the Centurion's command, one of whom is Decius' personal friend and client.This is a tightly written mystery set against the fabulous background of Julius Caesar's conquest of Gaul.  The author does a superb job of impressing upon the reader the harsh discipline and politics of the Roman Army, and the difficulties that this sometimes poses for Decius.  This is one of the very best novels in this excellent series.  It moves at a rapid pace, never loses the reader's interest, and rocks the reader with an ending that will satisfy and delight.  Highly recommended.  RJB.
