Review: Rating for historical fiction
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 02 10, 2012
The three star rating comes from the high amount of fiction in this book compared to other books with more historical research for this genre. The book is good and gives the reader all the battle scenes they would desire.  However,  the first book of the series is much more informative and realistic.  This book goes beyond possible and may stretch into a new genre which could be called historical science fiction.  If you are looking for a well researched historical fiction from the likes of Cornwell, Uris, Penman or Michener then you will be sorely disappointed.  If you want a fiction novel with battle scene after battle scene you may enjoy this
