Reading Update

Just finished book 3 of Jack Ludlow's trilogy on Belisarius.  Personally I think his trilogy on the Normans in the South of Italy was better overall but as I have an interest in the Early Byzantines, I am googling up everything I can find.


I will be starting the Legend of Africanus trilogy about the illustrious general tonight by Matthew Jordan Storm as I anxiously await the third book in Paolo A. Belzoni's Belisarius series.  Nothing new Ludlow's book and he really just glossed over his later campaigns.  He did paint a vivid picture of the animosity Theodora held for our hero, though.
