Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set in the eighth century B.C.E., represents the eleventh book of a larger work by the author and follows the events leading to the siege of Thebes. The story is told through the lens of seven characters, all of whom strive for power in some form and each representing a faction in the Greek city-state. Central to the narrative are the twin brothers Eteocles and Polynices, whose personal rivalry and struggle for supremacy forces them to confront their own moral compasses and the sacrifices they must make in the name of political power. The author comments with a critical eye on the flaws and virtues of mankind; he is particularly interested in the relationship between personal desire and the ethics of governance, pursuing this theme with clever and complex characters and a complex plot that moves at a thrilling pace. The book will appeal to readers interested in Greek mythology and politics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
