Publisher's Summary
In the epic clash of Greece and Persia, a hero is forged - a monumental novel from the author of the Tyrant series.
Arimnestos is a farm boy when war breaks out between the citizens of his native Plataea and their overbearing neighbours, Thebes. Standing in the battle line for the first time, alongside his father and brother, he shares in a famous and unlikely victory. But after being knocked unconscious in the melee, he awakes not a hero but a slave.
Betrayed by his jealous and cowardly cousin, the freedom he fought for has now vanished, and he becomes the property of a rich citizen. So begins an epic journey out of slavery that takes the young Arimnestos through a world poised on the brink of an epic confrontation, as the emerging civilisation of the Greeks starts to flex its muscles against the established empire of the Persians.
As he tries to make his fortune and revenge himself on the man who disinherited him, Arimnestos discovers that he has a talent that pays well in this new, violent world - for like his hero, Achilles, he is 'a killer of men'.

Historical fiction
Loved listening to this tale. I like that the story is narrated by a father to his daughter. Great to hear from Greek history and The Long War is a series that gets better and better. This book is the start of an incredible journey.

Rousing
Mr Cameron knows how to put a reader right in among the action. Thoroughly enjoyed my time in the storm of bronze. Peter Noble's narration is on point too.

this is not fun
I have been listening for over 3 hours and I really pray this gets better, the only reason I am still listening is because I paid for it

Narrator needs much work
Couldn't finish. Couldn't stand the narration. The guy sounded like a cross between a drunk David Attenborough & a 3 pkt a day chainsmoker
