About this title

Synopsis

Before maps ran out and the world had edges, there was a king and his horse. For twenty years, Bucephalus carried Alexander the Great through the dust and fire of three continents across Persia, Egypt, and the edges of India never leaving his master's side, never faltering, never asking for anything in return.

This is not a history book. It is something older a piece of living folklore, still told today on the soil of modern Greece, passed from grandparent to grandchild the way only the truest stories are, on land that was once ancient Macedonia.

Bucephalus: Alexander's Horse follows the great king's campaigns through the eyes of the people around him soldiers, healers, and ordinary lives caught in the wake of extraordinary events with the great black horse moving quietly through all of it, loyal beyond reason, remarkable beyond explanation.

Whether Bucephalus was something more than a horse.... well. Some mysteries are better carried than solved.
