About this listen

This tale takes place in Iscium, an isolated Roman village in Britain. Most of the town senators and officials are primarily concerned with keeping a low profile with the neighboring barbarians - with the exception of the crotchety old bishop. But when young Falx decides to run away to Rome and instead finds a lost barbarian girl, things begin to happen. The children are found by a merchant who returns them to Iscium. This is a zany mix of history, humor, and the miraculous - in the tradition of Don Camillo.

Loved this book. I love John Lees voice. He also did a book called The Winged Watchman and did a fantastic job. There are some very funny parts in this book like when the Saxons were bamboozled by the events that unfolded. Unfortunately, it appears to be the only audiobook by Ann Lawrence.

a great and funny listen
