Books Editor (673 KP) shared own list

Oct 20, 2017 (Updated Oct 20, 2017)
Sixteen months after Britain voted to leave the European Union, the political debate over Brexit seems as intense as ever.

Publishers, writers and bloggers alike have not been slow to spot the market that the poison has created. Yet too many of the books and pamphlets that have been published since the vote amount to little more than a re-run of the same old arguments over whether to remain or leave.

Four recent works, though, do better than most at avoiding that trap.

More arty than your typical roman storyline (1 more)
Interesting view of early Britain from the romans perspective
Story could have been more fulfilling (0 more)
Easy storyline, strong themes of family honour and loyalty.
Thought this would be quite a dull story but turned out to be quite interesting. Its quite a relaxed watch and toes the line between the romans and the early britons perspective of history.
Has strong themes of family honour and loyalty. A decent film but not one I would probably watch again.
