Brant Gibbard (Canada) (2010/07/02):
"Bagoas, a young Persian eunuch of celebrated beauty, adrift from the court of King Darius, is taken as an attendant into Alexander's household. The story, narrated by Bagoas, tells of Alexander's last seven years as he pushed his conquests eastwards, of the vicissitudes of his campaigns and of the love that flowered between the great conqueror and his Persian servant.A skilled and subtle storyteller, Mary Renault has written a powerful, richly detailed novel which proves a magnificent sequel to Fire from Heaven."
