I didn't think any character could match Stephanie Plum, but I was wrong. Gabriela Rose is thoroughly engaging. Her ex husband is also very appealing. I now have two Janet Evanovich series to love. I can't wait to hear the sequel.

Outside of comic books and superhero movies, the Norse gods are not as well known as the Greek, Roman and Egyptian mythological pantheons. This book provides a ton of information and illustrates the colorful and detailed world of the Norse God's. I always enjoy the books written by Enthralling History, but I don't appreciate Jay Herbert's narration. He reads with a very singsongy inflection that I personally find annoying, distracting and inappropriate for most adult non-fiction books.

In today's world of geopolitics, Austria often stands in the background behind Germany and other European countries, but the reality is that for many centuries, Austria was a powerhouse, giving rise to Holy Roman emperors, as well as kings and queens that ruled outside of the Austrian borders. So much of what Europe is today is a result of the Hapsburgs and other notable Austrian figures. This book is a very comprehensive summation of Austria's contributions to Western Europe and the world.

Another interesting read from Captivating History. I learned so much about these two particular Germanic tribes. I had never realized the Lombards were considered a Germanic tribe, which goes to show that people with Germanic ancestry traveled and settled in places far and wide.

The book is full of details, uses good sources, and the narrative flows well. Jason Zenobia is by far the best of the narrators that Captivating History utilizes for its books.

The history of Cleopatra and her relationships with her brothers, Julius Caesar, and Marc Antony are fascinating stories, told in an interesting and comprehensive way in this title by Captivating History. The inclusion of so many first-hand accounts and primary sources makes all the Captivating History titles a good resource for one's own library.

I continue to believe that Jay Herbert is not a good narrator for serious, non-fiction titles for adults. His voice is just too sing-songy, and really is better suited for children's books or maybe comedies. Other than that, I think this is another great book.

If you love history, you'll love this title by Captivating History. I was not already familiar with the history of the Weiman Republic before listening to this book. There was so much information to unpack in this book, filled wth details, and told n an interesting way.

It's great to have the full story of the Catholic church in one title. As I have come to expect, there are lots of details sported by primary source documents.

I love how engaging all of the books in this ”for Kids” series of books are. The language is age appropriate, and the details are logically laid out. This book puts the people and events of ancient Japan in a story kids can enjoy.

The information contained in this book is interesting. The story of the Trojan War is one of the most thrilling. As usual, Captivating History has done an outstanding job of presenting the information in a way that is both informative and still interesting. My only complaint is that Jay Herbert is not the best narrator for serious nonfiction books.

This book lives up to the standards of most of the Captivating History books that I've read or listened to so far. Lots of interesting information and quotes from first-hand or contemporary accounts. The story of the Cherokees, and Native Americans in general, is tragic. Too often the details are hidden or glossed over. It's good to have books like this to bring out the story which deserves to be told. My only complaint is that I don't think Jay Herbert is the right narrator for these types of non-fiction, historical accounts. He did a better job in this book than in others I've heard to not sound quite so sing-songy, but I believe it's just the nature of his voice, which makes him a better fit for narrating the Captivating History for Kids series of audiobooks.
