Did you like the movie 300?

Gates of Fire is amazing. I would finish chapters in goosebumps. Great book about the Battle of Thermopylae. Pretty accurate as well.



From the Wiki:

quote:

Gates of Fire is a 1998 historical fiction novel by Steven Pressfield that recounts the Battle of Thermopylae through Xeones, a Spartan Helot and the sole Greek survivor of the battle.

Gates of Fire is on the Commandant of the Marine Corps' Reading list. It is taught at West Point and Annapolis and at the Marine Corps Basic School at Quantico at Virginia Military Institute and at Brophy College Preparatory

The answer is always Charles Bukowski. It doesn't matter what you're looking for or what you think you want to read, the answer is Charles Bukowski.
