Although I'm a fan of historical fiction I didn't connect with this book, the plot gets a little heavy for me so I'll pass. Likewise, I hope those who choose to read it enjoy all the potential the book surely has. It's good to know that the author took care to improve the problems in the book. Thank you for sharing this review.

This book sounds really cool. I like that it’s set back in history and deals with conspiracies. Very interesting.

Congrats on BOTD. Looks like those who are interested in the French and British conflicts during the 1800s will like this book.

I oppose any form of prejudices. So, it's unfortunate in the 1800s the British caused so many injustices to Irish and American interests as they sought to exert their rule on them. Great review.

Illuminati and the 'One World Order', is phrases/statements that pops up for as long as I can remember. However, it seems like since 2020 and the deviation of COVID 19, these statements become more prominent, or maybe it's just me? Although this is just fiction, there is always some truth in what is written. I can't wait to read this. Thanks for an insightful review.

Thank you for your review. It sounds like the world today hasn't changed that much since the 1800s, since this secret group continues as does the prejudice in many ways. I'm glad you enjoyed the book and that the author corrected the errors you mentioned. I know many enjoy historical fiction, but I'm pretty particular about which ones I like. I will pass on this one and let others enjoy it.

Historical fiction is one of my favourite genres. I've been hearing about illuminati for a while. I would like to know what there conspiracy is about and how they plan to go about changing the world. The author picked my curiosity with the sample of the book. Congrats on BOTD!!

The book sounds thought-provoking. Making our world a better place with any bright concept is welcomed, but using the occult to create fragments of a better world rather than an integrated parallel might be harmful. I look forward to reading the book.Congrats on the BOTD. Great review too

I was drawn to this book by its name. The fight between English and French and many other things are discussed here. The author did a wonderful job in learning the history properly to create such a book.

I enjoy reading Historical fiction from time to time. For my mental health, I keep off from the ones featuring wars. The review was detailed. Congratulations on BOTD.

I love historical fiction and the Illuminati question has been a long standing issue among a lot of conspiracy mongers. Can't wait to see what the author has to say about it.

The secrecy of the Illuminati, to the extent that many do not believe the cult even exists, makes it a difficult subject upon which to base a book. I would be interested to know whether the author has inside information or has speculated a great deal for this book. Either way, congratulations on BOTD. Thank you for your review.

I am curious if the Illuminati from this book is related to the same Illuminati currently. This is definitely an interesting conspiracy theory, as the people in control are possibly swayed by the visions influenced by power groups.
