The Castles of the Assassins

Rating:
Summary: Enjoyable to read, lacking in scientific details
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book as it was a lively tale of interesting travels in Iran and the experiences involved. However, the author is not an authority on the Assassins, or for that matter, Iranian/Persian history. Therefore if you really want to find out in detail about the history of Assassins, I recommend the book Assassin Legends: Myths of the Isma'ilis by Farhad Daftary.
