Protector
Brings war in the ancient world to vivid life...I'm blown away - Anthony Riches.

And so Themistocles must fight. To survive the game of politics, to make his name, he must prove himself again and again in battle.
His enemies are legion, his allies do not trust him and the Persians would corrupt him—but history belongs to the courageous...
