Country. Freedom. Democracy.
How much would you sacrifice to protect them?
480 B. C.
Proud Xerxes, Emperor of Persia and King of Kings, invades Greece with a million soldiers. He leads thousands of ships and is helped by dozens of allies, among them the charming Queen Artemisia.
Against him stand a few Greek fighters and two determined men - Leonidas and his three hundred Spartans on dry land, the personification of bravery and patriotism; and Themistocles and the fleet of Athens on the sea, the incarnation of ingenuity and strategy. Can they stop him?
War. Heroism. Self sacrifice. Victory.
An epic book about the first great war in history, a war that decided the fate of humanity, western civilization and democracy.
A tough but deeply human novel about honor, dignity and tragic love crushed between the blade of a sword and the blood of battle.
