When I was younger I went through a brief phase where I was only exclusively interested in reading novels that were written hundreds of years ago... And you know what? I have to admit that I was glad that I did! You see, in my opinion I find reading where a lot of the more modern entertainment is a lot of fun, and gives you a sense of where that particular entertainment medium came from and where it came from.

And you know what, 'Dante's Inferno' by Dante Alighieri is one of them.

You see this novel is the first part of, 'Dante's Divine Comedy', and tells the story of Dante and his trip through hell and the various circles of hell that Dante makes his way through on his way to the bottom level, where the, 'Devil' is, and where we find out where the worst places in Hell is reserved for!

In the end, this novel was fun, but the truth is, is unless you are used to reading these types of novels, then this probably is not for you, but in truth, I really enjoyed how Dante not only brought the lead character through hell, but I also really enjoyed how Dante more then bringing the lead character through hell, was bringing the reader through it as well!

So give it a try, it is an interesting read, and if you try it, you might find the same thing as well!
