" As far as historical fiction goes, this is an amazingly well-researched look at the Aztec people and Nahuatl language. A trip to Mexico City inspired me to read it, and it adds a lot of details about the days just after the conquistadors invaded Mexico. The plot is a bit melodramatic and coincidental, but easy to read despite all the foreign concepts and language. "
