 Lupus longs to travel to the Greek islands, to find his mother and fulfill his uncle's dying wish. When he and Flavia, Nubia, and Jonathan hear that freeborn children are being kidnapped, they set sail. Their mission takes them from Corinth to Rhodes, site of one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, where they encounter a slave-dealer known as "the Colossus" - and a deadly trap.©2005 Caroline Lawrence (P)2005 Orion Publishing Group Ltd Fiction Historical Fiction Literature & Fiction Mysteries Mystery & Suspense Ancient History

Loving this series

I know it’s supposed to be a children’s book, but I am listening to this as an adult and totally loving it, it brings life in Roman times alive!

Fault with the book not playing

Seems like a good book. Good plot and characters, interesting storyline and good Narration. Have also enjoyed others in this series despite being an adult. However, less than a third of the way through this book it just stopped playing and won't play anymore despite several attempts so I can't recommend it from Audible.
