Has anyone read this book? I picked it up last week and just started to read it.

I have to say that so far I am highly disapointed. The book is not factual at all. The author tries to tell us things that we do not know and makes references to modern events very poorly.

Any opinions? Is this a book of history or merely a taudry historical novel?
