Two and a half thousand years ago, the Greeks and the Persians fought an epic battle to decide the future of our world. This is their story.
CONN IGGULDEN is one of the most successful authors of historical fiction writing today, with bestselling series on Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan and the Wars of the Roses, as well as two stand-alone novels- Dunstan, set in the red-blooded world of tenth-century England, and The Falcon of Sparta, in which Iggulden returns to the Ancient World. Both instalments of his Athenian series, -The Gates of Athens and Protector, and his recent Golden Age series, Lion and Empire, are Sunday Times bestsellers.
Thrilling retelling . . . It's a brilliant read, and his
description of the Battle of Thermopylae is simply a stunning - and
inspiring - piece of writing
