You have my permission to use whatever, for the purposes of a slide show, as long as everything mine is adequately credited.

As to what to focus on, you should actually make your own choices to that. I have tried several different configurations of focus (you can find many slideshow-based presentations of mine on this online), but always I am making my own assumptions as the author. It is valuable as a reader for you to choose your own, to reflect what you took away as most important or interesting and worth the audience knowing.

Indeed., Alas, I never found the time to record it. But it has been recorded by another voice actor and is in editing now. I hope to see that released in 2024.

Which year lol

Alas no. Still struggling to make time to produce it.

Any update on the audio book?

Before end of this year.

Oh good catch. Bithynia wasn’t a consular province. But I miswrote that line. Pliny was on the first occasion special prosecutor in Bithynia (he prosecuted its governors), not governor. I shall have that fixed in the next printing.

“And he had also governed that same province a decade before that.”

This of course is referring to Pliny the Younger in Bithinya(?). I thought it was a mantra that no-one governed Roman provinces twice, not Pilate, not Pliny and especially not Quirinius! Would you mind clearing this issue up for me?
