A nostalgic re-listen
I first read this book when I was 12 years old. At the time I was filled with the desire to become an explorer, marveling at the wonders of past civilisations. Now at the age of 57 I probably have a more jaundiced and pragmatic view of the world, but this story helped to bring back, albeit briefly, the feeling of wonder and of futures unknown, that is the almost sole domain of childhood.
