captivating since the beginning
In the beginning I was a bit sceptical about trying this book due to the short length of 1.30h. I took a shot and it really worth doing so. It's quite introductory into the subject, It covers a decent size of the sumerian culture and history. Definitely nice when just starting with the subject and really really easy to use. Personally I don't like books where the authors uses a weird or complicated language, this one is quite easy to understand.
