From a sampling, this seems like an interesting historical fiction about a naval officer that is drawn into secret plot by the Illuminati. Will he be able to stop it? It might be worth a second look. Well done.

This seems like am intense book. What would be going through Richard's mind when he finds that he been inclined with the Illuminati in a weird way. There may be no vibes of mystery detected from the review but I'd want to know how the Illuminati act out. Nice review.

I love historical fiction, and it would be interesting to read a story about the Illuminati in the 1800s, rather than in the present. I also like that the book addresses various prejudices that existed during that time, something that we could do better about nowadays as well. Thank you for the helpful review.

The author must have done a lot of study and research to put this together and in such a creative way. Very apt.

Illuminati? I've heard so much about this sect. Maybe in this book, I get a chance to know a little more about them. I also enjoy reading historical books, so I'd like to read this. Good review.

I enjoy reading historical literature, and reading about the Illuminati in the 1800s as opposed to the present would be interesting. The book's discussion of many prejudices from that era, something we should yet do better with today, is another aspect I find appealing. Congrats on botd!

Well there are various organizations that hope to achieve the same. But the question always lingers, at what cost? For some it may be financial but for others an may be precious like morals or our humanity.
