This was a fiction book, however the story is rooted from real events. My favourite character was Flavia. I liked her problem solving. I also liked Admiral Pliny and Ferrox. The story of the eruption of Vesuvius is fascinating I would not like to experience it! The story of Vulcan and his parents is also a bit sad. However, it was a very good book. I recommend it to everyone.

It was a really good book but I didn't like the way that Admiral Pliny was so lazy at the end so he died.
