Book Review of Gates of Fire : An Epic Novel of the Battle of Thermopylae

Gates of Fire : An Epic Novel of the Battle of Thermopylae
reviewed on


I love historical novels. I don't know if it was 100% historically accurate, but was close as far as I can figure out. Plus, 400 or so B.C., who's to say for sure?

I LOVED this book. It riveted me for an entire weekend; couldn't put it down, well written. Totally worth reading if you're into the history and appreciate good writing.
