Summary
The heroic story of Arimnestos of Plataea continues - a thrilling historical adventure set amid the epic struggle between Greece and Persia - perfect for fans of the blockbusting film 300.
Slave, pirate, husband and lover: Arimnestos of Plataea has been many things in the course of his life. But men remember him best as one of the heroes of the Battle of Marathon, the epic victory that prevented all of Greece from falling under the Persian yoke.
But now there is a new Great King on the throne, determined to succeed where his father failed. As rumours abound of a vast Persian invasion, an embassy is sent to forestall the threat.
Arimnestos is chosen to escort them - an honour he can hardly refuse. But as the storm clouds of war gather and factions on both sides begin to weave their treacherous plots, Arimnestos' journey begins to look more and more like a suicide mission.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Amazing author. Superb performance
After the somewhat sprawling and unfocused book 3, this one is right back on track with a superb story brilliantly told. It is always enthralling and often moving and inspiring. And the narrator is superb. Bringing the world to life perfectly. I didn't want it to end. Bravo.

No words...
Absolutely amazing. Christian Cameron twinned with Peter Noble drag you into the world of the Greco Persian Wars and make you feel as though Arimnestos is more a part of you than your own body. Phenomenal.

This series gets better and better.
To contradict the comments accompanying this audio book - "Perfect for fans of the blockbusting film of 300" NO. This narrative is leagues above the Hollywood trash that was the film 300 and quite frankly it's an insult to compare it with such nonsense; IMO. Please do not be put off by such an ill conceived comment and if you are a fan of 300, then listen, learn and prepare to be educated. 🫤 Mick the Hick
