Description
'An excellent new series by the consistently brilliant Robert Fabbri' - Sunday Sport _____________________________ Babylon, 323 BC: Alexander the Great is dead, leaving behind him the largest, and most fearsome, empire the world has ever seen. As his final breaths fade in a room of seven bodyguards, Alexander refuses to name a successor. But without a natural heir, who will take the reins? As the news of the king's sudden and unexpected death ripples across the land, leaving all in disbelief, the ruthless battle for the throne begins. What follows is a devious, tangled web of scheming and plotting, with alliances quickly made and easily broken, each rival with their own agenda. Let the battles begin...

ReviewsFabbri does an admirable job of marshalling his characters and leavens the dark politics with wit and action * Antonia Senior, The Times * An excellent new series by the consistently brilliant Robert Fabbri. * Sunday Sport * A powerful retelling of one of the most dramatic events in ancient history. * Nick Rennison, BBC History, on Arminius * Powerfully chilling, detailed and dramatic. * Express Online on Arminius * Fabbri does an excellent job with this scintillating source material. * Antonia Senior, The Times, praise for the Vespasian series * An epic, brutal, and blood-thirsty journey. * Sunday Post on the Vespasian series * Stuffed with political deviousness. * Jon Wise, Sunday Sport, on the Vespasian Series * Gripping... incredibly well researched, detailed and historically accurate... As far as ancient history novels go this is one of the very best I have read recently. * New Books Magazine *
