    Captivating! I couldn’t put it down. The stories of the key figures are so well-told. A true gem!

  2. Tanish Anand

    A decent read, but I found it a bit biased towards certain historical figures. Needed more balance.

  3. Inderpreet Singh

    Fascinating! I learned so much about Athens’ golden age. Some parts were slow, but overall, a great read.

  4. Palak Shah

    Good introduction to Athenian history. It could’ve used more maps to illustrate the military campaigns.

  5. Himankita Debbarma

    Interesting perspective, but I wish it had explored the social aspects of Athenian life more deeply.

  6. Manya Chauhan

    Informative, but occasionally dense. I appreciated the scope, but it felt a bit overwhelming at times.

  7. Abhishek Kumar

    Really enjoyed this! The author made a complex history accessible and captivating. Highly recommend.

  8. Pavan Sai Charan Kumar Nallaka

    A bit academic, but still a good resource for understanding Athenian history. I learned a lot.

  9. Kartikey Gupta

    It’s okay. The book felt a bit disjointed, jumping between different periods without a clear narrative flow.

  10. Yashika Methi

    An excellent book! I was completely absorbed in the stories of ancient Athens and its leaders.

  11. Ritik Saini

    A solid overview of Athenian history, though sometimes felt a bit dry. The focus on key figures was a good approach.

  12. Vaastvikta Malik

    A must-read for anyone interested in ancient Greece! The book is incredibly well-researched and engaging.

  13. Jayant Raghav

    Informative but somewhat tedious. The battles were described in excessive details. Not for a beginner.

  14. Harsh

    Comprehensive and insightful! A wonderful journey through the rise and fall of a great civilization.

  15. Anurag Lakhera

    Well-written and engaging! The biographies of the key figures really brought the era to life.

  16. Shubham Raj

    Disappointing. The book lacked depth and originality. Relied too heavily on existing narratives.

  17. Fredrick Lakra

    Loved the biographical approach! Made the history personal and relatable. A few editing errors, though.
