The Babylonian Empire review

  Synopsis: The Babylonians were indisputably a formidable force in the ancient world’s stage, but how did they rise to power three separate times in Middle Eastern history? What led to their cataclysmic falls? And why did everyone keep stealing their chief god Marduk? Dive into the riveting stories of the remarkable Babylonians, who transformed the Middle East and left an enduring legacy. Thoroughly researched, engaging, and easy to read, this book will guide you through the fascinating history of a civilization that has left an indelible mark on our world. My review: A very thorough review of the Babylonian empire, includes some interesting facts and stories yet unfortunately was a little bit confusing and uninspiring. I felt that some parts of the book could have been written in a more clear manner. However, lots of good images and diagrams which helped to tell the history of this ancient kingdom. I particularly enjoyed the chapters about Babylonian culture and innovation - i di...

The Split review

  Synopsis: The remote Antarctic island of South Georgia is about to send off its last boat of the summer – which signifies safety to resident glaciologist Felicity Lloyd.   Felicity lives in fear – fear that her ex-husband Freddie will find her, even out here. She took a job on this isolated island to hide from him, but now that he's out of prison, having served a term for murder, she knows he won’t give up until he finds her.   But a doctor delving into the background of Felicity and Freddie's relationship, back in Cambridge, learns that Felicity has been on the edge for a long time.

The Five Greatest Warriors - review

  Synopsis: As the world teeters on the brink of destruction, Jack West Jr learns of the Five Warriors who throughout history have been intimately connected to his quest. Now in a race against his enemies he must locate and set in place the remaining pieces of The Machine before the coming Armageddon when oceans will rise and cities will fall. My Review: The Jack West Jr series is great because the novels allow you to suspend disbelief for a few hours and fully immerse yourself in complex, twisty adventures that span every continent, from the Pyramids of Egypt to Loch Ness. Reilly never fails to amaze me with the way that history from many different eras is weaved into the plot, giving great backstories to the intricate trap systems and lost civilisations that are part of Jack’s adventures, and this book is the best one yet with figures such as Genghis Khan and Jesus being involved with the plan to destroy the world. I also love the camaraderie of the group and how all the differen...
