He is not to be relied upon when it comes to Theodora, some of what he writes looking like it first appeared on a high school bathroom wall, but he is willing to give Justinian his due. Though hostile and critical of the emperor he does, begrudgingly, write of his finer points and admits that he has some.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
