Story
Arimnestos of Plataea grew up wanting to be a bronzesmith, like his father. Then, in the chaos of war, he was taken to a city in the Persian empire and sold as a slave. To win his freedom he had to show that he could fight and kill. Now, to preserve that freedom, he must kill again. For the Persians are coming. A vast army sent by King Darius to put down the rebellious Greeks and burn the city of Athens to the ground. Standing against them on the plain of Marathon is a much smaller force of Athenians, alongside their Plataean allies. To defeat such overwhelming force seems impossible.

Story
Arimnestos of Plataea was one of the heroes of the Battle of Marathon, in which the heroic Greeks halted the invading Persians in their tracks, and fought in the equally celebrated naval battle at Salamis. But even these stunning victories only served to buy the Greeks time, as the Persians gathered a new army, returning with overwhelming force to strike the final killing blow. For the Greeks, divided and outnumbered, there was only one possible strategy: attack. And so, in the blazing summer of 479 BC, Arimnestos took up his spear one final time at the Battle of Plataea.

Still spellbinding
Not as good as previous volumes. Some historical inaccuracies (the Bourc Camus was captured before the time the action takes place, for example). Otherwise, still spellbinding. The marriage between Violante Visconti and the Duke of Clarence DID take place and was a huge social event. Battle scenes mesmerizing. Still, feels kind of like filler. Let's get to the defender of Venice! My first introduction to Gian Galeazzo. Worth reading to find out about some of the historical figures.
