BESTSELLER - "Terrific... gripping... A literally shattering climax." -- The New York Times Book Review All along the Mediterranean coast, the Roman empire's richest citizens are relaxing in their luxurious villas, enjoying the last days of summer. The world's largest navy lies peacefully at anchor in Misenum. The tourists are spending their money in the seaside resorts of Baiae, Herculaneum, and Pompeii. But the carefree lifestyle and gorgeous weather belie an impending cataclysm, and only one man is worried. The young engineer Marcus Attilius Primus has just taken charge of the Aqua Augusta, the enormous aqueduct that brings fresh water to a quarter of a million people in nine towns around the Bay of Naples. His predecessor has disappeared. Springs are failing for the first time in generations. And now there is a crisis on the Augusta's sixty-mile main line--somewhere to the north of Pompeii, on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius. Attilius--decent, practical, and incorruptible--promises Pliny, the famous scholar who commands the navy, that he can repair the aqueduct before the reservoir runs dry. His plan is to travel to Pompeii and put together an expedition, then head out to the place where he believes the fault lies. But Pompeii proves to be a corrupt and violent town, and Attilius soon discovers that there are powerful forces at work--both natural and man-made--threatening to destroy him. With his trademark elegance and intelligence, Robert Harris, bestselling author of Archangel and Fatherland, re-creates a world on the brink of disaster.Binding Type: Paperback

Not for us!
Size: Large, Color: Antler
I'm sure for a dog that doesn't chew, would be great. Ours went through it in days, leaving sharp shards and making his gums bleed.

Not Durable Enough

These worked SO WELL...
For one night. Maybe my pupper is just super destructive with his chewing, but he had a chunk of the top of the pineapple off less than 10 minutes after opening the package.
That being said, the concept is perfect. He is very active when I'm trying to settle him down for the night if he hasn't had enough activity during the day. This translated to him trying to chew everything (including my arm, and RIP my comforter...) I wanted to find something for him to chew on that would help sooth his teeth/gums, since the other toys he loves weren't interesting enough to keep him engaged. Unfortunately, despite one night of his chewing relaxation, he chewed right through them.
At least I know the concept of a frozen chew toy is the correct intervention. I'm just sad that these were destroyed so quickly!
