«The Angry Aztecs» is a children's history book by Terry Deary, published by Hippo in paperback (127 pages, in English).
With humour and quirky facts, it covers the Aztec civilisation: daily life, beliefs, rituals and the encounter with the Spanish conquistadors. The author poses provocative questions and gruesome details —from eating habits to ceremonies— to present history as a fun adventure, far from serious textbooks.
It is the twelfth title in the Horrible Histories series, originally published in 1997 and illustrated by Martin Brown.
Aimed at children and young readers, especially those who want to discover history in an entertaining and surprising way.
