  1. Ishika Sharma –

    I appreciated the clear and concise writing style. A great introduction to a complex topic. Highly recommended!

  2. Saurish Behl –

    It’s a good summary, but it skims over some crucial events. It is still valuable as introductory material

  3. Sonesh Balajirao Jadhav –

    I was hoping for more on the everyday life of the people, rather than just emperors and battles. Disappointing.

  4. Avni Saran –

    Wonderful book! Engaging, informative and a joy to read. Highly recommended if you are interested in this era!

  5. Ritik Jain –

    I found the book informative. However, it could have benefited from more maps and illustrations. Still, good value.

  6. Ajeet Kumar Gupta –

    Brilliant! The best short history of Byzantium I have read. Full of interesting facts. Great book.

  7. Hemant Kumar –

    A good read, but the author’s bias was a bit too obvious at times. Still informative overall. Worth consideration.

  8. Sudhanshu Rai –

    An interesting book with good information, but too dry at times. Could be more engaging. Worth it if you need a summary.

  9. Ritika Rupam –

    This book is a solid intro to Byzantine history. I did find that some chapters were better written than others.

  10. Prasoon Kumar –

    The book presents Byzantine history but occasionally reads like a list of events. A timeline is great.

  11. Arijit Pattanayak –

    A fascinating subject, but the writing style is a little bland. It’s not bad, just not particularly exciting.

  12. Sankalp Mathur –

    Captivating! The perfect introduction to the Byzantine Empire. Highly recommend for history buffs. Well written and informative.

  13. Vishal Sinha –

    I enjoyed the sections on art and architecture, but the political history was a bit dense. Overall, a solid introduction.

  14. Ayush Gupta –

    A must-read for anyone interested in history! So interesting and full of details! Highly recommended.

  15. Shah Abhishek Satishkumar –

    While informative, the book was a bit boring and lacked depth in certain areas. Overall, I wasn’t overly impressed.

  16. Palak Gupta –

    The book felt rushed. It touches on so much, but it’s not detailed enough. Good for beginners, but experts may be disappointed.

  17. Ritika Rupam –

    Dry and dense. Not for casual readers. The information is good, but it’s hard to get through at times. I struggled.

  18. Anitej Nayan Gopal –

    I loved learning about the culture and society. Some parts were too much about politics. Worth it for history nerds.

  19. Sanket Nagnath Deshmukh –

    Amazing! A comprehensive look at a fascinating empire. I couldn’t put it down! Will read again. Perfect.

  20. Shreyas Goverdhan Bangalore –

    This book was a bit of a letdown. I expected more in-depth analysis. It’s okay, but not great. Disappointed.

  21. Saumya Sharma –

    Excellent book! Very comprehensive. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the history of the Byzantine Empire.

  22. Vipul Yadav –

    A good overview, but I wish there was more detail on the legal system. Still, a worthwhile read. I learned a lot.

  23. Mrinalini Singh –

    A decent overview, but I felt the narrative jumped around a bit too much. Could have been organized better.

  24. Yashu Priya –

    This book provided a good overview, but some areas felt underdeveloped. Still worth the time for the general reader.
