Dear Kent,
first of all welcome to ADI!
Personally, I've read her 5 books and enjoyed them a lot and when I'm on vacation I usually take one of them with for relaxation.
There actually are some parts that are not in accordance with historical tradition, but she never pretended to be writing a History book, but only historical novels. And she did go through a lot of research (as some citations in her book show) and she was perfectly ready to admit when she "left" actual history for novel.
So, as I sid, I do like them a lot. But lot of others here may think it differently.
Here are some posts where the issue was discussed:

If you want, you can find others just by searching our internal Google.
I'm sure soon others will come with their own opinions.
And be ready... as true Romans we like a lot to discuss...
Salve!
