A review by david611
Raiders From The North by Alex Rutherford

4.0

A nice read, but became bored by the time it was over. It included quite a few details, but since my only other Historical Fiction reading has been that of James Michener's, I ended up comparing, only for the sake of understanding which writer do I truly enjoy more. And Yes, although the Moghul era does interest me, I wish this would have been written by Mr. Michener. However, much is well put forth, with the Rutherford's research and travels. I am sure it must have been painstaking. The action scenes have been provided with fine details, although I personally tend to not enjoy action much. The style of writing did not bore me, but since in that era, most of the action took place with wars and capturing land, it became monotonous, which got me bored by the end of the book. I will certainly read the next book in the series after a few months.
