About this product
Product Information
A consuming story of love, loss and redemption set in the classical world of Rome and Greece, Of Merchants & Heroes is the story of a young man's pursuit of his father's murderer and and of the values and qualities he develops that will make him a man... a man capable of a deep, noble and enduring love. At the end of the third century BC, as Republican Rome's long war with Carthage was at last drawing to a close, it was already threatened by a new enemy, Philip, the tyrant king of Macedon in the east. Thus begins Rome's long involvement with Greek civilization, from which it is to learn so much... Into this turbulent world emerges our Roman hero, Marcus, whose father is brutally murdered by pirates on a journey from Italy to Corfu on a visit to his uncle. Fate takes him to some of the great cities of the Greco-Roman world at a time of major turbulence, where he learns much and finds love unexpectedly. This is a remarkable, beautifully written debut that explores political and philosophical questions that are timeless - democracy and tyranny, war and self-defence, right and duty - as well as questions of love, loyalty and betrayal.

- v***a (1473)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseVery good delivery time. Well protected by packaging, but I wouldn’t describe the book as in very good condition. It has some sort of damaged caused by fluid in the first part of the book, and seems “old”. The pages are all very readable though. I’d just call the condition as acceptable to good. Having said that, I’m happy with my purchaseRevelation by C. J. Sansom (Paperback, 2008) (#235354888456)
