Making history, it turned out, was quite easy. It was what got written down. It was as simple as that.

Quinn really is the people’s princess but hates being princess. Like he is number 3 in the NHL for fastest defensemen in the NHL, and this is what he looks like when they pan to him on the bench.

Rating: 3/5

Book Blurb:

In K. J. Parker's new whip-smart dark fantasy, a group of scholars must do the impossible for a ruthless king. The cost of refusal, of course, is death.

History isn't truth, it's propaganda.

Seeking war with his neighbor, the tyrannical ruler of Aelia convenes several of his kingdom's professors for a chat. First citizen Gyges only just invaded Aelia a few years back and, naturally, his public image can’t take the hit of another unjustified assault.

His totally sane solution? Simple, really. These scholars must construct a fake ancient city from scratch to verify Gyges’s apocryphal claims.

Now these academics must put their heads together to make history. Because if they don't, they'll lose their heads altogether.

Review:

A group of scholars must construct a fake anxiety city for a tyranical king and if they fail to do so... they'll face death. This was definitely an interesting story, especially with how it ended. It's a short and fast read and definitely covers a unique storyline. I do think it's an easy one to get into and that if you like a bit of fantasy read then I'd give it a go.
