Review "A first-class storyteller....Mr. Jennings has achieved true distinction." --Atlantic Monthly"Anyone who reads, anyone who still lusts for adventure or that book you can't put down, will glory in the Aztec." --The Los Angeles Times"Aztec is so vivid that this reviewer had the novel experience of dreaming of the Aztec world, in Technicolor, for several nights in a row." --The Chicago Sun-Times"The scope of the book includes the gallantry and barbarism, sex and nobility, intelligence and folly, of historical fiction.....[The reader] is amply entertained and caught up in fascinating history." --San Francisco Chronicle"Remarkable...It conveys with ferocious yet often lyrical force the texture of life in a civilization at once intensely sophisticated and, by our standards, uterly barbaric....A splendidly colorful, wholly convincing re-creation of a vanished culture." --Cosmopolitan --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.
