Memories are fresh of King Xerxes' invasion, when the Persians burned Athens to the ground; since then, Themistocles has rebuilt the city to resist invaders, and its soldiers and sailors stand behind him. But rebuilding is not enough. Themistocles must fight, again and again, to survive and to prove himself, on the sea, on land and in the unforgiving arena of public opinion, all while his enemies multiply, his allies waver, and the Persians circle looking for a way to corrupt him. Conn Iggulden continues his epic account of ancient Greece with a novel of war, ambition and the price of holding power without a crown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48628581794004,"sku":"TVJ-030475","price":9.2,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-030475-1.jpeg?v=1788744317","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/protector-by-conn-iggulden","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
