Acerca de esta escucha

 In a dozen brilliant and bloody years, a young man from the mountainous kingdom of Macedonia shattered the old world and forged a new one in his own image. Alexander the Great led his army across deserts and mountains to topple the greatest empire ever known, becoming a legend in his own lifetime. This is the epic story of how the prince of a rugged kingdom became the undisputed master of Asia before his thirty-third birthday.

This book chronicles his entire journey, from the fractious Macedonian court under his formidable father, Philip II, to his audacious crossing into Asia to challenge the might of Darius III. You will stand with him on the decisive battlefields of Granicus, Issus, and Gaugamela, and witness his legendary feats of will, from the siege of Tyre to the cutting of the Gordian Knot. Follow his path to the mystical Oracle of Siwa, through the treacherous sands of the Gedrosian desert, and to the banks of the Hyphasis river where his own men finally challenged his relentless ambition.

Beyond the battlefield, you will discover the man behind the myth, a figure of bewildering and fascinating complexity. He was a political visionary who dreamed of fusing East and West, yet also a man capable of ordering the burning of Persepolis and the slaughter of thousands. Explore the profound internal conflicts that drove him—his fierce love for his friend Hephaestion, his tempestuous relationship with his parents, and his crippling sense of a divine destiny that set him apart from all other mortals.

Lord of Asia delves into the chaotic world Alexander left behind, exploring the brutal Wars of the Successors who tore his empire apart upon his death. It reveals how his most enduring legacy was not one of political unity, but the creation of a new Hellenistic civilization that would influence the course of history for centuries. This is the definitive story of a life lived on such a scale that it continues to defy easy explanation, a timeless and compelling study of ambition, power, and the darkness that often accompanies glory.
