This proved interesting. I like historical fiction because it brings light to facts that I would have otherwise ignored.

That's so true. I really like the way you beautifully summed it up. Good.Dorcas Serwaa Adu wrote: ↑05 Oct 2019, 21:43 Well, that's one interesting thing about books. They help to discover, criticise and correct the wrongs of society. In actual sense, it being about an era and place not often written about makes the book more captivating. Like everything else, humans love new things and will like to explore more. For this reason, once one starts reading the book, it becomes a new addictive drug they can't stop taking . Though, I haven't completed the book, I can tell the place is just like any other place, it has its good and bad. While people try to push forward, the anti progress minded ones will do anything to sabotage that. What I'll like to learn more about is the culture or way of life of the people way back before the era the author wrote about and also how it is at the moment.

Therefore, I did not learn anything particularly new from this book. However, it is very interesting to read historical novels in an unusual setting. Human history is much more than ancient Rome or Victorian London.
IBesides, this book is very well written.
