''The Colossus of Rhodes'' is a children's historical novel by Caroline Lawrence, published in 2005. The ninth book of the Roman Mysteries series, it is set in spring AD 80, partly aboard ship in the Mediterranean, partly on the Greek islands of Symi and Rhodes (in this, it is noteworthy for being the first of the series to be set outside Italy, and is the first of two volumes to be set in Greece). ==Title== The title refers to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the giant statue of the sun god Helios at Rhodes harbour. By the time of this novel, it had been lying broken on the ground for three hundred years but was still regarded as worth seeing. "The Colossus" is also one of the nicknames of Magnus, the powerful slave-dealer based in Rhodes.〔(Macmillan Books summary )〕
