Englishman living in Rome since 1976. Author of the Flavian trilogy (Corbulo's Daughter, The Prophet of Pompeii and Gods of Blood and Water). The books are set in the first century CE, and trace the rise and fall of the Flavian dynasty, remaining faithful to the known historical facts. Here you can find information about my Roman novels, and occasional reflections on things Roman, and things in general. If you are interested in running, you can also check out my running memoir The Last Carbonara: Running in Rome.
