Frank Schildiner has created a unique character with Marcus Fabius Maximus and his occult adventures in ancient Rome. The historical setting is full of touches that elicit veracity. The club & sword slinging Germanic gladiatrix Kara adds an element of sword-&-sorcery as the duo take on mythic monsters and navigate the turbulent waters of Roman politics.
So, are these stories historical dark fantasy? Occult detective? Sword-&-sorcery?
YES!
Highly recommended! (and looking forward to more of these and other tales from the Schildiner's Worlds!)
