ENTER THE BATTLEFIELDS OF ANCIENT GREECE WITH THE EPIC BESTSELLER FROM MASTER STORYTELLER CONN IGGULDEN

'Pacy and propulsive . . . Crackling with energy, violence and stirring speeches' DAILY MAIL

'Iggulden draws the Greek world convincingly and he is strongest writing battle scenes' THE TIMES

THE FIRST BOOK IN CONN IGGULDEN'S EPIC NEW SERIES THE GOLDEN AGE
_______

Pericles stands in the shadow of his father: a man who once saved Athens.

To make his own name he must prove himself in the liar's den of Athenian politics: pitting wits against friends, sceptics, enemies.

But words alone do not make a leader.

A force of Persians threatens the city and Pericles must find courage on the battlefield.

In its time of need, Athens' warriors must be lions . . .
_______
