Rilettura come sempre. Non so come Isaac abbia potuto sposare Roberta. L'ho sempre odiata si dalla sua prima apparizione. Certo mi dispiace che alla fine muoia dando alla luce loro figlio. Ma è la maggior parte del suo comportamento per tutto il volume che non riesco a sopportare.

The story develops at a faster pace. Julius is just an extra for the time being. There are many twists and turns to keep the reader's attention. The mirrors with historical explanations are appreciated.
