I really liked this book! It strikes a good balance between intrigue and educational content, which was a pleasant surprise. Some parts were a bit dense, but overall, it really delivered on its promise of being both informative and entertaining. One downside was the slow delivery, arrived a few days late, but the book's content made up for it. Would definitely recommend it if you're into historical fiction with a twist.
