AZTEC

Hello to all the readers!
I hope you’re doing so fine.
This time you are going to read something about a book I recently read. I recommend it to all the people who like the history and the novels.
The name of the book is Aztec and was wrote by Gary Jennings, he has wrote some novels about Aztecs but this one is the most famous (historic Best Seller). The book is quite extensive but it grips you since you open the book for the first time.
The book is about an Aztec citizen that tells his complete life experience. He describes how was his life since he was a child till the moment that the Conquerors arrived to The New World and took Tenochtitlan. He lost his sight very early, but that illness didn’t stop him to have a life full of achievements but also all the suffering that came with it.
The book envolves you in an amazing a interesting histoty full of details that meke you feel that you´re really in the place desribed, seeing what the characters are doing.
I strongly recommend this book. And for me is one of the best books that I have read.
A detail that I almost fotget: the book have some pages that are not recommended for children, because are full of sex and violence themes.

I have known about this book for ages, but I'm always a bit lazy when it comes to starting really BIG books. That is, until somebody gives a heartfelt recommendation like yours. I'll give it a try.
