Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield is, in my humble opinion, an excellent book. The book tells the story of a young Greek, surviving the destruction of his city by volunteering to join the Spartan helot, or slave, class.

Pressfield brings a magic to his characters that is infectious. He makes you believe in a heroic humanity.

In this episode I discuss this heroic humanity, fear, discipline and fate. I hope you enjoy.

Thank you.
