В открытой наугад книге наткнулась на фразу "Детство Александра прошло в тяжёлой атмосфере семейного разлада"; кажется, в книгах для младших-средних школьников такая манера письма неуместна.
Но книга в целом оказалась неплоха. Описывает детство и юность Александра Македонского, интриги и битвы, пиры и походы. Язык простой и понятный, только обилие действующих лиц (многие из которых носят одинаковые имена) немного напрягает.
