Review:
"The book tells a story of a Malay personal assistant to Malacca's king whose the country seized by Portuguese in a war and he became a servant to his Portuguese master. So, the master begins his voyage from Spain to Malacca in a mission to bring back spices to King of Spain (due to some political drama in Portugal). After years of voyage with lots of challenges, the now servant manage to reach Johore without his master who is killed in an attack to a tribal island.
Anyway, the story is great and deserves more detailed storylines as it tells the true events that actually happened in the past. This book is rather too brief and short like a synopsis of a great book of the same history." -Amir Fahmin-
