Critic reviews

“This … study deserves the wild popularity it will without doubt acquire.” (Booklist)

Really enjoyed this book

This was enlightening about the lives and the time these famous people lived. The writer and narrator were good and kept my attention and focus. Though it deals with death it gives us an insight into these people's lives and I learned a lot from it.

Morbid, but in a good way!

I loved this book. I learned a bunch of new and gruesome facts about how, when and why some of the most famous people in history "Croaked". But..... in a GOOD way.
The author has a wicked sense of fun, and the narrator was PERFECT! Bravo, I can't wait till Ms. Bragg's next book.

Great book 📖

I liked all the story’s and the best part was Einsteins death and I will read the sequel 

I absolutely love this book

I read this book before a long time ago and I loved it. It's my favorite book. I saw that it was on audible and I had to get it.

Easy "read'.

I really enjoy the narration of this book. It's a simple "read" that is understood and enjoyed by adults AND children. Kept my children off of their electronics in the car.
