Title: Hugely Disappointing...
Review: The format of the book itself is wrong ( to me). Instead of being a biography of the Emperor, it is a collection of accounts of his former employees; stake-holders of his (mis)rule. The very men who implemented his bizarre orders with promptness and enthusiasm. So the good writer doctored the eye-witness accounts with an ironical (satirical) air. It ultimately fails to lift the narrative. In fact, stalls the narrative with sameness. There is no single individual voice in the narrative.I am not giving it 1 star because it does give you lot of information, but the style is dull and painfully so. The subject matter is rich, though...AVOID!!!!
