Excellent as always, very much enjoy all of David's forays into historical fantasy, leading the likes of Iggulden in historical fiction but with that distinct Gemmell edge. Thoroughly enjoyed both the story and the narration.

Great story very well read.

David gemmell crafts another great story based on a lot of historical fact and blends all the characters into a truly amazing story that is very well narrated , it’s worth reading it just for the end

Great story

The book is classic Gemmell leaning on his Source and Chaos theory in the Greek age. Superb storytelling at a blistering pace. The narrator takes a bit of getting used to but you soon find the rhythm of his lift at the end of each sentence.

A great telling of in unheard story

I've always loved this book. And I was very excited to hear it as an audiobook. But the choice of narrator made it almost unbearable to listen to.

From his boring and monotonous cadence. To his unsuitably high voice. He really ruined this audiobook for me. Such a shame.

Great story, shame about the choice of narrator
