History and Poetry

5 stars

An amazing collection of translated poetry by the oldest named author we know of. Add on some fantastic essays about both the translations themselves, and the history and culture of the times, and this was a great read for lovers of poetry, history.

Mary SanGiovanni: Alien : Enemy of My Enemy (2023, Titan Books Limited) 4 stars

A Thrilling Alien Adventure

4 stars

This also has made me want to go see Alien Covenant, so good job!

If Alien is your thing, this read is worth it!
