In Hannibal, Ross Leckie brings to life the colossal struggle of the Punic wars and the Carthaginian general who routed the great Roman armies of his time. In a narrative of breathtaking scope and energy, Leckie's portrait of Hannibal is both dramatic and scrupulously imagined. A chronicle of tragedy, of passion, heroism and cruelty, Hannibal is an epic recasting of the tale of one of history's greatest adventurers, recounted by a master storyteller.

Review:
Ride on the historic charge across the Alps and into battle against the Romans in Ross Leckie's debut novel Hannibal, an exuberant account of the life, love, and inner torment of the great Carthaginian general sworn to bringing defeat to the Romans. The novel begins with a scarred and defeated Hannibal, who recounts how he came from the shores of North Africa to the heart of the Italian peninsula. Leckie's book brings Hannibal to life through a realistic psychological profile and a well-researched account of the ancient general's life and military exploits. Leckie excels at describing Hannibal's tactics and the brilliance of his strategy, while rounding out the story with insights into Hannibal's family and marital life. Strap on the battle armor and mount your pachyderms--charge!!!
