Review: Brilliant and complex 3rd book in the BL series
Rating: 5 out of 5

The writing in this series is more complex and interesting than the Star Crusades series. It takes a little longer to get into but the story is a classic. I've read the Ten Thousand historical novel before and the parallels are obvious. Xenophon is smart but not a super-hero. The richness of the world is epic in scope and the final battle for Cunaxa reminds me of the Horus Heresy by GW. Great series and a great 3rd book.
