Review
"Gives readers everything they could hope for in a work of historical fiction set in the time of Alexanders successors. . . . Fans of the series, and of the slings and arrows of ancient warfare, wont simply find themselves eagerly hovering above the ancient Euxine watching the action unfold. Theyll be over the moon." —Globe and Mail
