Omschrijving:
Before Robert Harris's Imperium and Conn Iggulden's Troy came Hannibal, bringing alive on of the greatest heroes of the ancient world 'Leckie writes unflinchingly of this world of blood, battle and atrocity.' Sunday Telegraph
In the third century BC, the two greatest empires of the ancient world are locked in bitter struggle. The wars between Rome and Carthage will see some of the most bloody and savage battles of all time, in which hundreds of thousands of men will die, and Rome will win mastery of the known world. Amid this, a figure will emerge who has become the stuff of myth and legend: Hannibal.
In this breathtaking chronicle of love and hate, heroism and cruelty, one of humanity's greatest adventurers and warfare's greatest generals returns to life. Hannibal learns, through suffering, that man is but a shadow of a dream.
'Full of wonderful scenes . . . Leckie lights up this world for us with fabulous energy.' The Times
'A tremendous novel in the class of I, Claudius.' Allan Massie
'Its triumph is to bring the world of Carthage to life again.' Spectator A battle is like lust. The frenzy passes. Consequence remains.
Hannibal is an epic vision of one of history's greatest adventurers, the almost mythical man who most famously led his soldiers on elephants over the Alps. In Ross Leckie's unforgettable re-creation of the Punic wars, it is Hannibal, the Carthaginian general, who narrates the story, and who is carried by his all-consuming ambition through profoundly bloody battles against the great Roman armies of early empire.
In this breathtaking chronicle of love and hate, heroism and cruelty, one of humanity's greatest adventurers is brought to life, who learns through suffering that man is but a shadow of a dream.
