### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Better than Troy
  

*by N***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2015*

Rare case when you actually glimpse the wheels of history turn. The best siege story I've ever read. Fascinating reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very well told story of a fall of Constantinopol
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2018*

Great picture of a dramatic turn in the medieval history. A bit lengthy in some parts but eventually clear why. Loads to say to paint the picture well. Been to Istanbul several times and could link places in the story easily. I deeply recommend the book to both, these interested in the medieval history and those planning to visit Istanbul!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Fascinating
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2024*

This was great! While on the short side (about 300 pages), so there was not much room to delve into all the nuances of history, religion, politics and economics, I think Roger Crowley still did a great job, giving us a detailed overview and definitely helping me to put all the events, backdrops, consequences into perspective.I also found the storytelling nicely balanced, strong points and weaknesses were all listed: the author gave appreciation for both sides when deserved and did not shy away from telling us about the atrocities of all.The sequence of battles is presented in a very exciting way, with the tactics/strategy and possible mindset of attackers and defenders. There is heroism, cunning, betrayal, determination, fear and petty squabbles. There is cruelty and desperation and awfully high stakes on both sides.Will certainly check out other books of his.Good narration by Simon Prebble.
