Solomon's Thieves

review 1: I would probably give this 2.5 stars because the writer did a good job a story in the Templar world without it being some conspiracy that disproves Christianity. That was well done. The art was meh, not bad, but not great.The panels were not really used with purpose.The writing was decent. I have no complaints.The main value is the how the author used the historical setting as history teaches it (yes, I said it that way so any conspiracy theorsts out there can have a hay day) for a story that is not Dan Brown.
review 2: Jordan Mechner creates an engaging narrative of 14th century Europe in the aftermath of the Crusades. This is a promising start to what will be an excellent series. The story foces on a Knight Templar who fought at the tail end of the Crusades t... morehru the betrayal of the Templar in 1307. On a Friday the 13th in 1307 the Knight Templar were targeted for elimination by King Philip IV of France the book does a great job laying out the events that led to this. The art is fantastic and the story is phenomenal. I highly recomend this book for any fan of history or of action-adventure. less
