I challenged myself to post an #amazing book I hadn't mentioned before.

Latro is a Roman mercenary who suffered a severe head injury in battle. His memory is wiped clean every time he sleeps so he wears a scroll of papyrus around his neck labeled READ THIS EACH DAY and he makes a record of the day's events, which forms the book.

Also due to the injury he can see the Roman gods and goddesses at work in the world that others cannot. #SeptemBowie
