Started midnight library by Matt Haig, and three body problem by Liu Cixin.
Finished east of eden by John Steinbeck, and midnight library by Matt Haig
Finished:
Fifth Sun (Camilla Townsend). Great, very insightful read that reminds me of the ‘Celtic Holocaust’ episode of Hardcore History. While it is a very academic book, it also highlights how the few written Aztec sources survived.
Persian Fire (Tom Holland). Great read that offers a warts-and-all look at the world’s first major empire as well as the conflicts with the Egyptians and the Greek nation states. Holland also highlights how the Persians expanded territory – conquest, religion and normal diplomacy.
Started:
The Korean War (Max Hastings). Only started. About 50 pages in so far. Interesting read so far.
