Very enjoyable reading! His characterizations of historical persons are interesting—not necessarily accurate, but interesting. I particularly enjoyed his portrayals of Cicero and Julius Caesar.
My biggest complaint is that he makes Gordianus a little too modern in his thinking, at times.
Saylor is apparently a fairly decent scholar of the times. However, like all good story tellers, he doesn't let history get in the way of a good story.
