About this listen

Arimnestos of Plataea has already lived through several lifetimes' worth of adventure, from being a rich man's slave in Ephesus to winning glory at the battle of Marathon against the might of the Persian Empire. But the gods - and the Persians - aren't finished with him yet.

As an experienced sea captain - his enemies might say pirate - he has a part to play in the final epic confrontation of the Long War between the Greeks and Persians, the Battle of Salamis. It is a battle where many debts of blood will be repaid, ancient grudges settled, fame won and treachery exposed, where the Greeks must finally bury their differences and fight as one - for against them Xerxes, the Great King, has assembled the greatest fleet the world has ever known, his sworn purpose to brutally extinguish the flame of freedom and make every Greek his slave.

A brilliant story brought to life by the Masterful hand of Christian Cameron. Truely one of the best I’ve ever experienced. Peter Noble, himself has narrated another Masterpiece. It’s like being transported back in time to this incredible crossroads for the survival of Ancient Greece.

Superb

I have listened to well over 100 hours of Cameron's novels this year and they are consistently strong. Perhaps they are male books with all they fighting but the female characters are also given "character". The history is terrific, the plots are consistently strong, the minor characters are well written and the geography and culture are explored in satisfying detail.

In general I have found these books excellent and as much as I enjoy science fiction I kind of hope Cameron can stick to his historic fiction. How about Metternich and the austro hapsburgs?

Very very enjoyable historical fiction
