This book has a special place in my heart because it saved my senior thesis in undergrad. I was a lonely little Texan in Midwestern hell, and decided to write my thesis on the TX revolution after I bought this book.
In short, this is the history of the revolution, the Republic of Texas, then becoming part of the USA. The colorful and well-known characters involved in the colonization and subsequent events are all used to create an overall picture of the time period. Overall, a great book.

The way the game is formed is brilliant, and you can see each character set within the game as you play it. I love the idea of French revolution characters, both sides of course!! Bring it on!!!

"Brilliantly researched, this book transports you vividly into the world of Thomas-Alexandre Dumas, a mixed-race nobleman and soldier during the French Revolution who inspired his son, Alexandre Dumas, to write The Count of Monte Cristo. It is a must-read."

"This was the book that started me on the path of steganographic textiles. While many find Madame Defarge a villainous bitter woman, callously knitting between executions, for me she represents a feminist hero, channeling her rage at sexual violence against women as fuel for the French Revolution."

This unique book brings six, talented historical fiction authors together to tell the story of seven (well, almost eight) women who played important roles in the French Revolution. Find out what I thought of this special collaboration through my review on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/09/27/liberty-equality-sorority/
  

"A very well researched biography of Carbon and humanity that will help you appreciate everything from the Big Bang to the Industrial Revolution to Global Warming and make you want to help save the Earth. It’s easy to read and makes you gain so much knowledge that we will need for the New Age."

Rolling Stone's 263rd greatest album of all time
Brilliant soulful pop album, including the phenomenal Fast Car, Talkin About a Revolution and Baby Can I Hold You Tonight, as covered by Neil Diamond and more famously Boyzone. The rest of the album is also superb and got me through a stressful trip to Tesco.

Yet another fabulous story. With the kidnapping of Jacqueline before her ceremony and Fane and the other wolves racing to save her, you experience this tales from two completely different angles and areas.

The heart warming connection that comes with their bonding and the resulting revolution of Jen's heritage creates a brilliant end before their journey to Romania.
