Title: Are we reading the same book?
Review: One customer said this was better than "Gates of Fire". Since I thought "Gates of Fire" was brilliant I bought this book. What a disappointment! I have to wonder if that reviewer read the same book I did or is just shilling for the author.This book is badly written, full of misspellings, grammatical errors and words whose meaning the author apparently doesn't know.The author's knowledge of the subject is sketchy at best. I plowed through to the end hoping at least that the climactic battle would salvage the book. Alas, the author managed even to make the battle of Plataea boring.I give this 1 star only because the author is not a professional writer.In my opinion he would do well to keep his day job.I wish I could get my money back. This book is so bad I wouldn't even donate it to my local library book sale.
Is the review positive or negative?
