Description
A boy who was never meant to be king, a horizon waiting to be explored, a love and legend that moved and created worlds, and has been erased… until now.
Pella, Greece; 341 B.C.
Alexandros is a middle child caught between two warring spouses, born to both a king and queen, but never meant to rule himself. When a mysterious young man arrives from the north, fleeing his own family, and meets Alexandros in a garden in the Macedonian capital, the bond that’s created between them will soon become unbreakable and ultimately define both the direction of the Ancient World, and ours.
For fans of The Song of Achilles and Madeline Miller, Young Conquerors is a novel of the vast mysteries of the human heart that gives two of the most important figures in history the love story they deserve and shows how Alexandros, later called “the Great,” was shaped, formed, and ultimately turned into the man who would go on to become the greatest conqueror and visionary the world had ever seen, all told through the eyes of the one he loved, and who knew him best.
A beautiful, sweeping, epic, and breathtaking novel from a new and important voice in Greek fiction, this is an intimate and vivid portrait of two of the most famous young men in history as they’ve never been seen before: caught between youthful ambition and eternal love, and on the precipice of changing the world.
