Roman Holiday
Roman Holiday | Jodi Taylor
8 posts | 20 read | 4 to read
Another rollicking short story from the Chronicles of St Mary's. Question: What sort of idiot installs his mistress in his wife's house? Especially when that mistress is Cleopatra VII Thea Philopator, Queen of Egypt and the most notorious woman of her time? Answer: Julius Caesar - poised to become King of Rome. Or as good as. Question: At this potentially sensitive point in your political manoeuvrings, who are the last people you'd want crashing through the door, observing, recording, documenting ...? I think we all know the answer to that one. Roman Holiday - an epic, stand alone tale set in Ancient Rome, 44 BC, featuring, in no particular order: an attempted murder, stampeding bullocks, Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile, a bowl of poisonous snakes, a smallish riot, Julius Caesar, and Mr Markham's wayward bosoms.

The contingent from St Mary‘s lands in Rome around the time Julius Caesar had brought Cleopatra to live in his own abode. As always, the team plummets themselves into hot water with Caesar‘s legendary guards and have to try experimental measures to escape back home. Suffice it to say, Caesar and the queen both sported enormous schnozzes, at least according to the main character who met them, and raucous jokes ensue! 😂😂😂 #serieslove2023

A good story, but not as good as all the others I‘ve read and listened to. The gang manages to save Julius Caesar and/or Cleopatra from premature asp bites. Just not as much peril or humor as her other stories. Still a pick. A different kind of #holidayread

Thank you again for everything, you are awesome. 🤗❤️☺️
