April 2023 Book of the Month

Dido, star of the Circus Maximus series gallops back for a new adventure and it is every bit as thrilling as we’ve come to expect.

Book three sees her journey back to Rome, still ruled by Emperor Caligula, who remains her enemy and is now more cruel, more erratic than ever. Despite the danger, Dido is determined to go to find and bring home her cousin Abibaal, who is rumoured to have joined the Greens, the emperor’s chariot racing team.

She is too old now to pass for a boy, but fate sees her competing in the Circus Maximus a final time, the stakes higher than ever. As she races the Four Winds team, against Caligula himself, it’s a trick inherited from her mother that saves her life.

Dido and the horses she loves have won their places in readers’ hearts, the series’ mix of history and cracking good adventure story making them clear favourites every time. We get particularly close to Caligula in this episode and it’s memorable stuff; as far as Roman history goes, these are virtually unbeatable.
