Summary

This novel in the scintillating Tyrant series brings the epic siege of Rhodes in 306 BC to spectacular life.

The death of Alexander the Great was the signal to begin the greatest war in human history - a war that swept like a firestorm from one end of the known world to the other, as his former generals fought like jackals to make his vast empire their own.

By 305 BC, the most powerful players in this deadly game faced each other across the Mediterranean: Ptolemy, the master of Egypt, and Antigonus One-Eye, master of Asia. And between them, the island of Rhodes, a strategic fortress city that neither could afford to cede to the enemy.

But trapped in the city was one man with the courage and determination to save it from destruction. A man who, surrounded by his closest friends and the woman he loved, simply could not afford to fail.

A man called Satyrus.

outstanding

each review is for a different book, but this is not so christian Cameron, historical fiction is boys own action and since the 60s I've been fascinated by costume and weaponry and sail ships, hornblower, but the sea battle off Cyprus left me breathless the writing, and narration, implacable. then the heroism of a siege entwined with a myriad of emotions. simply outstanding

Another brilliant addition to the series

As with all the books in this series, Cameron writes amazing stories, develops brilliant characters, and Peter Noble breathes life into them. looking forward to the next one but I'm gutted its the end if the road for this series! 😢

Just boring

First I must say that I love the hellenistic period but this book was just boring. I guess if I was a teenage boy I would have liked it. A lot of hack n' slash but plain characters.

A bit samey

I do find myself switching off as they are all sound much alike at this point. I don’t really care for the ‘messing around in boats’ part of the series, though others will. Apart from Attalus, who disappeared without explanation, I can’t say I care much for the other characters.
