The epic story of the Long War of the Greeks and Persians climaxes with the earth-shattering Battle of Plataea.
The epic story of the Long War of the Greeks and Persians climaxes with the earth-shattering Battle of Plataea.
Rage of Ares by Christian Cameron tells the gripping tale of Arimnestos of Plataea, a celebrated hero who played a pivotal role in the Battle of Marathon, where the heroic Greeks halted the invading Persians in their tracks. Arimnestos also fought in the equally celebrated naval battle at Salamis.
Despite these stunning victories, they only served to buy the Greeks time, as the Persians gathered a new army, returning with overwhelming force to strike the final killing blow.
For the Greeks, divided and outnumbered, there was only one possible strategy: attack. And so, in the blazing summer of 479 BC, Arimnestos took up his spear one final time at the Battle of Plataea.
