_________________________

This gripping historical novel plunges into the
ancient world of Aristotle and his pupil, later thevirtual psychopath and world conqueror, Alexander the Great.

Macedon. 367 BC. Philip II is bringing war to Persia. Forged in the warrior culture of Macedonia, the time has come for his young son Alexander to take up his inheritance of blood and obedience to the sword. It is a training that has made the boy sadistic; fiercely brilliant, but unstable. A dangerous trait in a king fated to rule the vastest empire of the ancient world.

Compelled to teach this startling, precocious, sometimes horrifying child, Aristotle soon realises that what the boy needs most to learn - thrown before his time onto his fathers battlefields - is the lesson of the golden mean, the elusive balance between extremes that Aristotle hopes will mitigate the boys will to conquer in this age of fighting heroes...

Especificaciones del producto



Escrito por Annabel Lyon


«Soy una escritora y profesora de Vancouver. Mis libros anteriores son Oxygen (cuentos), The Best Thing for You (relatos) y All-Season Edie (relato juvenil). El maestro de Alejandro [es] mi primera novela para adultos...» Eso cuenta Lyon en el brevísimo perfil de su blog, pero no dice que estudió música, filosofía y derecho. Ni que vive en New Westminster, British Columbia (Canadá), con su marido y sus dos hijos.
