Xeo, the sole Spartan survivor of Thermopylae, has been captured by the Persians, and Xerxes himself presses his young captive to reveal how his tiny cohort kept more than 100,000 Persians at bay for a week. In the tradition of Mary Renault, this historical novel unfolds in flashback. In Gates of Fire, however, Steven Pressfield makes their courageous defense-and eventual extinction-unbearably suspenseful. From the start, there was no question but that the Spartans would perish.
Here, in 480 B.C., on a narrow mountain pass above the crystalline Aegean, 300 Spartan knights and their allies faced the massive forces of Xerxes, King of Persia. Thus reads an ancient stone at Thermopylae in northern Greece, the site of one of the world's greatest battles for freedom.
