Poseidon's Spear

The Long War, Book 3

De: Christian Cameron

Narrado por: Peter Noble

An epic novel from the master of historical fiction, author of ALEXANDER: GOD OF WAR 'Brilliantly evoked' Sunday Times

Arimnestos of Plataea is a man who has seen and done things that most men only dream about. Sold into slavery as a boy, he fought his way to freedom - and then to everlasting fame: standing alongside the Athenians at the Battle of Marathon where the Greeks crushed the invading Persians.

Sometimes, however, a man's greatest triumph is followed by his greatest sorrow. Returning to his farm, Arimnestos finds that his wife Euphoria has died in childbirth, and in an instant his laurels turn to dust. But the gods are not finished with Arimnestos yet. With nothing left to live for, he throws himself from a cliff into the sea, only to be pulled by strong arms from death's embrace. When he awakes, he finds himself chained to an oar in a Phoenician trireme.

And so begins an epic journey that will take Arimnestos and a motley crew of fellow galley slaves to the limits of their courage, and beyond the edge of the known world, in a quest for freedom, revenge - and a cargo so precious it's worth dying for.©2019 Christian Cameron (P)2019 Orion Publishing Group

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Brilliantly evoked." (Sunday Times)

Brilliant

Just brilliant. Delightful and captivating with a wonderful tale that continues be engrossing with enough historical accuracy to please an avid philhellene. The narrator is an ideal fit and brings the story to life.

This book is a wild ride

Christian is a genius and Peter Noble, in my view, is the BEST narrator, EVER!! I didn’t think there was a better series than Christian’s Tyrant series… this is its equal and perhaps better !!!

Another 5 stars for Cameron and Mr.Noble.

Another great book in the series. This author is really one to watch. Peter noble is one of the best voices on here. The story is really engaging and keeps you wanting to listen more. I bought the 4th book even before I finished the 3rd.

All around A+

The things I love about this series; Peter noble is an exceptional narrator, a rich sprinkle of historical context, believable characters, and an exception story. I could not ask for more.

I’m going broke it is too good

Can’t get enough of this author. The story is familiar yet told better than most with great characters. These characters told from one point of view in an old story teller style. I can’t do it justice!!
