Amber Herbert reviewed Making History by K. J. Parker
Cool Premise, Mediocre Execution
3 stars
The idea of history being used as political propaganda is fascinating. The prose was well constructed and the narrator had plenty of character. But nothing really happened, at least nothing compelling or properly fleshed out. This could have been more interesting with a deeper dive into the linguistics, architecture, art history, literature, and geography that the professors were experts in.
