Long War Series

7 primary works • 7 total works
A series that covers the whole of the Persian Wars from a first-person point of view, while deliberately playing with some of the reader's perceptions of both history and the way that 'adventure' or 'boy's own' genre fiction is written. The first book, Killer of Men, named after Achilles, follows in first person the life of Arimnestos
