The Rise & Fall of Great Powers

For me, there were simply too many "down the rabbit hole" moments in this book to enjoy it. There are numerous locales, bizarre characters and a fluctuating timeline that eventually come together to explain Tooly's life, but by the time that happened, I had tired of reading this book. It never fully engaged my interest.
