Blurb: “THE STRENGTH OF HERACLES...

THE BRAVERY OF ACHILLES...

THE WISDOM OFARISTOTLE...

This was the legacy of the young man born of a barbarian and a witch to fulfill the strange omens of splendor and greatness.

In a breathless tale of the extraordinary Alexander the Great, a master storyteller recreates the high drama which was this infamous demi-god's life. Here is the handsome young prince who chose books over the beautiful young women and men sent to tempt him; the youthful conqueror who ordered bloody massacres but grew sick with self-loathing afterward; the brilliant general who battled his way into the unknown to learn the mysteries of life; the ascetic who brought his people richness and luxury beyond their wildest dreams; the despot who, in a dozen years, altered the entire thrust of history; the heir to a kingdom no mortal had ever before dared to claim.”
