The extraordinary beauty of his face has been handed down to us by the sculptor Lysippus. His achievements are the stuff of history: an extraordinary empire, spreading from the Danube to the Indus, hard to imagine, impossible to believe.
But who was Alexander, the young Macedonian king who, in the fourth century BC, conceived the idea of conquering the whole world, before dying, like Jesus, at the age of just thirty-three?
Child of a Dream, the first volume in an exciting and compelling saga, tells of a man who was considered a god, of his burning ambition and the violent passions that consumed and eventually destroyed him. It also presents us with an unseen Greece, a civilisation that, while familiar, now seems unknown and even more fascinating.
