    About this audiobook

    Welcome to the concise, all-you-need explanation of the Aztec empire!


    When you think of the Aztecs, you might think of certain movies you have seen or what you've been taught in history class. And although some of those images and descriptions fit the main narrative, there is still much left to be discovered. This brief book will take you on a journey and kidnap your imagination to a faraway place in time.


    Learn more about the facts and findings of scholars, archeologists, and scientists. Topics such as these will be addressed:

    The Difference between the Toltecs and also the Aztecs.

    The background and origins of the Aztecs.

    Surprising facts about their civilization.

    The Spanish and their role in their society upon arrival.

    Violent human sacrificial rituals and belief systems.

    Shocking new facts about the Aztec empire.



    If any of this sparks your curiosity, then I invite you to start reading or listening to this book fast.

      This the absolute best audio books I have listened to, which is why I am taking a small minute to compose a review about it. The writer most definitely understands how to say it nicely. I am trying to say something bad about this book, but I can't. It's simply way too great. So without any further exaggeration, I simply believe everybody must consider listening to it.
