recommends it for: Those who love history.
I read a book I thought was called "Aztec" by Gary Jennings, but this was the closest I could fin to it. anyways I recommend "Aztec" it's the history of the Atztec's in a well spun story of man who lives through it all. It's the history ( I don't know how accurated the history is) without the textbook jargon that make me want to sleep.

I didn't think this was quite as good as AZTECA but it does continue in the same vein and is worth reading.

Not as good as Aztec by any stretch. Still, compared to other writers, it's right up there.
