Two and a half thousand years ago, the Greeks and the Persians fought an epic battle to decide the future of the world...

Arimnestos of Plataea grew up wanting to be a bronzesmith, like his father. Then, in the chaos of war, he was taken to a city in the Persian empire and sold as a slave. To win his freedom he had to show that he could fight and kill. Now, to preserve that freedom, he must kill again.

For the Persians are coming. A vast army sent by King Darius to put down the rebellious Greeks and burn the city of Athens to the ground. Standing against them on the plain of Marathon is a much smaller force of Athenians, alongside their Plataean allies. To defeat such overwhelming force seems impossible. And yet to yield would mean the destruction of everything the Greeks have dreamed of.

In the dust and heat of Marathon, in the clash of shields and the rush of spears, amid the thunder of hooves and the screams of the dying, those dreams will undergo their fiercest test - and Arimnestos and his Greek comrades will discover the true price of freedom.©2019 Christian Cameron (P)2019 Orion Publishing Group Ancient Historical Fiction Kurgu Savaş Antik Tarih Özgürlük Antik Yunan Yunanistan

The story is absolutely superb, there is an unexpected twist or a turn everytime you would expect the reading to get stale. Amazing narration too!

A masterpiece

I will run out of superlatives before I get to the end of this series, so I'll leave it for now; suffice to say that War gamers and any person interested in military history - yes I mean history - and the human condition, DO NOT pass over this author and this narrator. Mick the Hick

THE BEST YET!

I often find an audible narration at bedtime will send me to sleep. This second book in the series, like the first were exceptions - and indeed they are exceptional stories, well narrated. Five stars for everything, the story line and the telling. The narrator in my opinion managed most of the Greek pronunciation very well - the only mistake that bothered me was his mispronunciation of the two Greek letters 'oi' which should sound like 'ee' not 'oy'. Still if you didn't know, you wouldn't mind.
His battles are exciting bloody and detailed, the main characters you get to know well and there's more than a few lines that made me laugh out loud.
My adult son has flown through the whole series and I'm just about to start the third - no doubt more insomnia on the way.
