Since I consider myself knowledgeable concerning historical cultures like the Inca of Peru, I think I would enjoy this collection of tales. Thanks for your good review.

I'm not into historical fiction, and this comes across as a tough read for me since I have no knowledge of general culture, history, and geopolitics that you mentioned about, but you've done a great job with the review!

This sounds like an interesting collection of thought-provoking tales. I'm curious about his 36 theses at the end of the book.
Thank you for your thorough review!

Thank you for your thorough review!
Theses refer to the notion of Phariseeism and the author’s moral principles. They were a surprise to me personally but they fit very well into the rest of the book. Thanks for the comment.

Great reveiw.
It is not a classic historical fiction because the author uses a historical framework to highlight his observations on morality and social justice. Thanks for the comment.
