RaveThe Irish Times (IRE)I am delighted that Harris chose Agrippa as the subject of his latest novel ... Where I, as a historian, try to capture and interpret the past from known facts, the historical novelist has some licence for speculation, short cuts and rearrangements to make a compelling story. Applying his practised craft as storyteller, Harris brilliantly succeeds in bringing alive the man I recognise from the texts, statues and coins of Ancient Rome.
