Captain Alatriste

Captain Alatriste Captain Alatriste by Arturo PĂ©rez-Reverte


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a great piece of historical fiction. I am new to reading books of this genre, but throughly enjoyed Captain Alatriste.



I was concered jumping into a book like this I would get lost and have no idea what was going on (I will admit I'm not much of a history buff). Not so, it's easy to pick up. Also, it's not a long book, so if you're scared to committ, this is a good one to start with.



The story is told by Captain Alatriste's young "apprentice" which makes for an interesting view point.
