Title/Author

  • Annals, Tacitus
  • Agricola, Tacitus; I think this book made me hate Tacitus. So many inconsistencies, and I *know* it's supposed to be a euology to Agricola, but the constant ass kissing gets a bit much. It's worse when the other governors get dismissed or Tacitus is completely rude about them - his expansionist policies often get in the way of proper criticism (or appropriate praise), such as with Turpilianus. Even with the governors Tacitus considers 'bad', it's very difficult to make your own opinion with the two or so sentences other governors that aren't Agricola get.
  • Death and Croissants; The two books in the series are very nice and cosy. The characters are quite stereotypical, but I think they fit fine within the type of story and they're used well for comedic effect...
