Reseñas

Fascinating


(5 stars)

I use this to go to sleep. Not that it's boring, far from it. It takes my mind back in time and I float away. Very well read. I highly recommend.


(5 stars)

I really enjoyed the deep look at medieval life, not just wars and kings. The author is definitely of his time and place, but it was well worth listening to.


(5 stars)

Amazing political history divined in here. Listen to this all the way through. We see that humans have not changed modes... even in costume!

Good read overall. Too much detail in some chapters.
