Very interesting was reading about space since I watched the Apollo movie so I will be reading a lot of books about it this summer

If I could read this over again for a first time I would. Riveting and keeps you sucked in the whole time. Absolutely love this authors writing. I will be looking for more from her.

Very interesting book about a son’s journey in trying to discover how his father died, the CIA involvement in his death, as well as learning the character of the man he had never really known &barely remembered

Absolutely devoured this read. Made driving to the grocery store so much easier! Definitely will recommend this listen to a fellow book nerd

I will for sure read this book again. I received it as a birthday gift because of my love of hockey smut and was completely engulfed while reading. Sleep was lost but pages needed to be read.

Suspenseful, but at times, hard to stay engaged in.

I loved the movie and didn’t realize there was a book. I loved all the added detail in the book!!!!!

People traveled in the 12th-15t centuries. Merchants sought new markets, diplomats finagled treaties, and anyone who could get the necessary funding and permissions took religious pilgrimages. Bale explores the most common holy and trade routes based on what the travelers wrote in journals and guidebooks. It is very interesting, but too limited. Bale points out several times that Christians (Roman and Eastern/Greek), Muslims, and Jewish pilgrims visited many of the same places in Constantinople and Jerusalem. We only have the Christian, and almost exclusively Western European Christian, stories. One small chapter near the end follows Asian travelers’ adventures in the west. Ma Huan (Chinese Muslim), Het’um (Armenian Christian), and Rabban Bar Sauma (Christian Mongol) don’t represent the majority of nonEuropeans. A broader range of viewpoints and less personal commentary from the author would improve the book.

Very interesting read on women of color and their stories in the United States …………………..,..,.:::..:..

I loved the fact that tom umhanks was the voice of this book kept in this used ………………………………….,,………..
