"The Late Republican period of Rome is one of my favorite spots in history to read about in general and Publius Clodius Pulcher and his sister were fairly interesting subjects to begin with, heck I call my cats the Clodii (Clodia Cleopatra and Lil Clodia, both Pulchers for sure) and my beta fish Milo hates them both. Only in the last couple of years did I come across Steven Saylor's and Colleen McCollough's historical fiction."
