Interesting story!

Captivating and held my attention. Well written and engaging. I always enjoy treasure hunts and historical novels so this one fit the bill.

Good story, but no way is the “narrator” human

The story was good, and I learned more about Braddock and Washington and Clark than I knew before. But the narration, which had the telltale signs of an automated voice instead of a human, did a disservice to what was an interesting and inventive weaving of history and fiction.
