So much information, so we’ll delivered. Learnt so much. Seems like an almost impossible task to cover such a vast period of time, but this book manages it and is also very well narrated by the author

Excellent

As ever Dan Jones conveys a compelling listen with such clarity and conviction that when you finish you’re immediately looking for the next one!

Excellent listen.

Totally enlightening for me. Lived the way Dan structures the book to help understand how changes in key areas operate around Europe at similar times. I would like to buy the book now to study it more closely. Thoroughly recommend

The largest in scope of any Dan Jones project that I've encountered. As a consequence, events can be tricky to keep in your head especially with an audiobook, but if this is a fault of the author's it is only in ambition.

Superbly written with a view to taking you into the lives of its subjects, definite recommendation for anyone interested in the period or who has previously enjoyed Dan Jones' writings

really enjoyed this book it was very informative and give me a good overview of History and how things fit together. example it was interesting to see how Plague and natural disaster affected history and had profound knock-on effects causing some Empires to fall while others using the opportunity afforded take advantage and become Nations and empires themselves. I highly recommend it if you love history

brilliant
