Protector

A Novel of Ancient Greece

De: Conn Iggulden

Narrado por: George Blagden

The latest epic in this best-selling author’s Athenian series of novels takes the listener on a vivid adventure where Themistocles will risk everything - his honor, his friendships, even his life - to protect his country.

The Battle of Salamis: Persian King Xerxes stands over the smoking ruins of Athens, an army of slaves at his back. Come to destroy, once and for all, everything that the city stands for, he stares pitilessly at the hopelessly outnumbered Greeks. Veteran soldier Themistocles cannot push the Persians back by force on land, and so he does so by stealth.

Conn always keeps it real.

Historical truth first, entertainment second. All of his books are of the same quality. Exciting the whole way through

Good

I need to use 13 words. Its a good series. All of his series are.

Excellent read

Engaging. Accurate enough to give a good overview of important events with believable embellishments. Felt like I was there.

Great adventure and history!

Another fantastic book written by one of my favorite historical novelists. I highly recommend this audio version because of the story, history and great narration.

Great story. Very well written and narrated.

I was thoroughly entertained and educated by this book. i look forward to enjoying the rest of the series.

As astounding as ever

This is a book, but I would recommend anything of history. A story of love, lost and lost found, battles, won and lost, and a beautiful tale we used in multiple stories. Truly one of the greatest times of our generation, and Conn Iggulden proceeds to achieve his goals as perfect as ever.

Good

Not quite like his other works, certainly is more slow. But overall I really enjoyed the story.

Another Gem

As usual, Conn Iggulden is a master of historical fiction. He paints the picture in your mind. I seem to be right there along with the characters. It also helps to have an exceptional narrator such as Mr. Blagden.

Exceptionnel

Yet another exceptional work of Conn Iggulden’s. The choice of George Blagden for narration suited the work extremely well.

Historical fiction at it's best

I've recently discovered this author and so far I have enjoyed everything that I've listened to. The reader gives an excellent performance, and draws the listener into the narrative.
