[Book Review] Horrible Histories: Terrifying Tudors🛡

🧮Score: 4.6/5.0

■ A brief yet impactful overview of the Tudors, uncensored history. The gruesome reality of the past is presented in a fun, creative and cheeky narrative. The flow is awesome! I enjoyed all the comical illustrations attached. No portion of this book can be boring.

■ At the end of each reign, there will always be quizzes. The answers give away more amazing trivia, if not mind-blown. By the end of the last “chapter”, you will sit for a set of exam questions that cover all bases on the Tudors. What is fun about these quizzes, apart from the way he phrases the questions and answers, is that the quiz will open with a different concept each time. But always, the motivation is, to challenge the teachers!

■ There are many interesting quotes, agendas and highlighted events that provoke our critical thinking further. Always learn from history. We will be able to devise a better strategy in whatever our endeavour is going to be, inshaAllah.

■ Full of dark senses of humour. The horrible histories of the cruelty of the rulers and “noble” men were indeed, Terrifying! Many forms of insertions are interjected between the passages. All of them have a definite purpose. For example, a short Shakespeare’s play titled Titus Andronicus was included. It was one of Queen Elizabeth I’s favourite pieces. How wonderfully horrible taste for entertainment, yeah?

■ Although the book was meant to be an engaging introduction approach to history to children, I would not recommend it. Teenagers, maybe. But for young adults and grown-ups with young hearts, please, it is highly recommended! Excellent read!

nothing destroys your perception of a local hero like finding out that he thinks your job shouldn't exist because he is 'losing money' from it
