We love a big, juicy, historical saga, particularly when it brings a particular time period to vivid life like few have before. That’s the case with Mitchell James Kaplan’s Into the Unbounded Night, a novel that has been praised as “brilliant” (Burton Book Review), “haunting” (Wayward Reader), and as “an outstanding piece that… creates a compelling, realistic story hard to put down” (Midwest Book Review). We hope you try this engrossing tale of first century Rome. Be sure to let us know what you think! —J&H
