We have listened to the entire series and this is one of the best. It's one of our go-to's when we can't decide on what to listen to.

Another great listen...

I enjoy going to these places with the author. Just the right amount of fiction and facts. My granddaughter is 9 years old. She is resistant at first, but I told her you have a movie behind your eyelids. I turn the audible book on and remind her to just listen and she'll see the book like her own private movie. I will too. about half hour in she falls asleep. Several times she has woken early to listen to the book.

The story weaves in elements of scientific observation that was in its infancy during Roman times, and was rare. However, moderns will approve if children in the audience receive a positive characterization of thinkers who were radical for that time. Another modern element is the characterization of barbaric slavery and gladiatorial violence.
