Review title: Too Much Information and told without Pizazz
Product review: This is the first book I've read by this author and the last. While the premise could have been interesting -- tying back ancient history to a madman's quest for knowledge -- this author writes information about history dryer than most history text books that I had to read in college.Another annoying thing this author does is repeat sections of the book verbatim from chapter to chapter -- bad editing job or how the author really writes?I'm giving the book two stars because I think it had the potential to been something really neat had he let the story come out instead of burying it in with so many facts of history. He could also do a lot with character development if he gave it the same passion as he does with his history research.
