Goodreads asked Ian Crouch:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Ian Crouch This goes back to the idea for the first book. Pyrrhus is a great and under-acknowledged figure in ancient history. His story offered a wealth of historical and political adventure, in a time where the history is dimly understood by the usual reader. A great man whose story begged to be told. Having embarked on the journey, it continues, and it will take three volumes to recount Pyrrhus' life and adventures.
