The "Eagles of Rome" books sound...interesting. I mean, thematically they are right up my alley, but you are certainly making them sound less than attractive. It reminds me of the horrible book series by Simon Scarrow, which, my response was like:
Oh look, a book series about Roman Britain, yay! Oh dear, it's basically generic "mean streets of Londinium" with vaguely Roman names, boo. Guess I'm not finishing this one.
