Jon_Snow Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 Last Days of The IncasBest Non-fiction book I've ever read. It so epic. Cities under siege, death of kings, people cut down in the tens of thousands, concubines, a rebellion, Jesus reincarnated as a telepathic baby. All of that stuff is in the book and it all actually happened. Its like Game of Thrones but actually based on fact. and now my watch begins... Link to comment
