5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and serious - enjoyable even if you don't like history, 12 Jun 2000
A wonderful book. I bought this book because I am fascinated by Alexander the Great. Actually although he does appear in the book it is not very much. Nevertheless this is a fascinating and funny book. It made me laugh out loud several times in spite of my being on the train. If you have read the solemn school of ancient history novel (the Mary Renault/Steven Pressfield type, good though they are) and are rather tired of them this is the book for you. His people are real, and for once I was actually able to imagine having lived then.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic book - the best of Tom Holt's historical novels, 8 Feb 2002
By A Customer
This book is fantastic; filled with vibrant characters and vivid imagery. However, the best feature is Tom Holt's dry, sardonic wit and the way it manifests itself through the thoughts, observations and conversation of the central character.
