Александр Македонский - величайший полководец Античности. Он покорил полмира, огнем и мечом прошел от Персии до Индии. Разрушил десятки городов и построил сотни новых, умел внушить страх врагам и окружить себя беззаветно преданными друзьями. Как удалось Александру совершить то, что современникам представлялось невозможным для обычного человека? Почему империя, не знавшая равных, распалась практически сразу же после его смерти? Читайте два романа Любови Воронковой ("Сын Зевса", "В глуби веков") о его жизни.
