Graham Hancock's novel War God review

Posted originally on the Rogan Board-

I finished War God and enjoyed it very much. Graham Hancock has spoken of a hesitation on the part of publishers to put out his fiction writing on the pigeonholed as a non-fiction writer and that would be ridiculous on the part of those publishers as he is a fine fiction writer. I think his observations from his non-fiction works, I think, add to the richness of his description. At some point I'll read War God again as there were a lot of characters to follow and keep track of.
I read a lot of history but haven't really studied that era of history to any degree so it was especially good for me that he included that War God and History section at the end of the tieing together his fictional aspects of the story with what are commonly accepted as historical facts pertaining to that era. Overall, lots of intriguing characters like Alvarado, Tozi, and of course, Cortes. Lots of violent and brutal battles and actions sequences and some powerful scenes such as the gruesome sacrifice. I look forward to the next two books and I commend Graham for making the book available for 2.99 on Kindle.
