Official Review: Wolves of Laconia by William A. Lamon

[Lisa A Rayburn]

Although I love that the author weaves emotional aspects into the story, I am not a particular fan of historical fiction, with or without romance. I think I will be passing on this one, but one of my daughters is a lover of all things Spartan, so I will be recommending it to her. Wonderfully written review, I enjoyed it greatly!

Thanks for a really comprehensive review. This novel has piqued my interest in this era of history. Definitely one to add to my reading list.

I love ancient history, it seems so far and close at the same time with its naivety and brutality intertwined. I believe there will be much to br found in this story of young man turning warrior and can't wait to delve in this great adventure!

Congratulations on a very interesting and thorough review! I know very little about the ancient Greeks, and there are so many books on topics that enthrall me, so I think I will excuse myself from this book. It does, however, look like it's very well written and educational.

I am a huge fan of ancient times. So a coming-of-age story about a Spartan sounds perfect. I can't wait to check this out. Congrats on the book of the day. Great review.

This book is about the Spartan era in Greece. The Greek people brought a lot of things like democracy, theatre and arts. Thanks for the review.

A coming-of-age story of a Spartan's life that details some specific physical and emotional battles sounds intriguing.

Thank you so much for this detailed and honest review!

I am a huge history buff, and historical fiction is one of my favorite genres. Your description of this book and your analysis of it grabbed my attention immediately, and made me excited to read this!

I read a few of the sample pages provided, and I was intrigued the minute I started reading. Your review of the book made this an easy decision for me to read it!

Thank you so much again for our excellent review!

Nikos sounds like an interesting character. I like the realism he adds to the story.

I like the facts about Greek culture! The fact that I can read about it through this fictional book is amazing. Congrats to the author for BOTD!

Good review. I love anything with Spartans. This seems interesting that Nikos is struggling between his feelings for a woman and those of being the true soldier he has trained to be. I can’t wait to find out what happens.

I enjoy historical fiction and always liked studying Greek and Roman history and mythology. I think this book might be a good choice for me. Thank you for the very informative review.

I enjoy historical fiction, but I think that I'm going to pass on reading this book. It doesn't pique my interest from the blurb or your review so I don't think that this book will be a good fit for me.
