1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good academic information from a poor storyteller By Zeitgeist After reading through half this book, I had to look the author up. Sure enough, the guy was a Victorian-era Classics professor. And it shows in this tome; it's full of wonky information all technically accurate as possible. Yet the story and characters are so meh and, well, Victorian, as to make the book feel not that it takes place in Hellenestic Antiquity but the London of Arthur Conan Doyle with Corinthian columns and togas swapped in.The main character is a generic cookie-cutter hero named Cleander, a Greek who through improbable circumstances finds himself fighting the hated Romans on behalf of the doomed Carthaginians - who for some reason have no redeeming qualities - yet also kicking back good times and wine with the likes of...Scipio?Reason for this is the author's reliance and admiration of Polybius on display throughout this book; in both the parroting of facts and opinions expressed in Polybius's Histories: The Carthaginians are hapless and doomed. The Greeks are masters of the world who threw it all away. The Romans are a vicious brand of Greek imitators, but with old Greek virtues intact. And, of course, Scipio is the coolest most awesome guy of anyone everywhere.The tropes and brittle age of the prose make the events covered in the story seem somehow a few thousand more years out-of-date then they actually are. If you're hard-up for historical fiction from this period - and it is scant - I'd say give at least the sample a try.

The historical scenes are interwoven so carelessly that the reader looses interest in the book. . However the auther tried his best to put his efforts in his best way. It is a good effort to describe how the carthegians trid their best to protect thier kingdom from the Romans.
