"A little more challenging than the sequel (Persian Boy) and a very odd start, but I'm really enjoying this. As usual, Renault does an excellent job at emphasizing the strangeness of the Hellenistic cultures without compromising immersion." Feb 22, 2026 11:20AM

"Very dense, not in a bad way, just a marathon of a book. Don't want to DNF so I'm shelving this temporarily until I have more time to get into it." Feb 22, 2026 11:25AM

Richard Siken
“We clutch our bellies and roll on the floor...
When I say this, it should mean laughter,
not poison.”
Richard Siken, Crush

Arthur Conan Doyle
“Watson. Come at once if convenient. If inconvenient, come all the same.”
Arthur Conan Doyle, Adventure of the Creeping Man

Jack London
“But I am I. And I won't subordinate my taste to the unanimous judgment of mankind”
Jack London, Martin Eden

T.E. Lawrence
“Nine-tenths of tactics are certain, and taught in books: but the irrational tenth is like the kingfisher flashing across the pool, and that is the test of generals.”
T.E. Lawrence

John Berger
“Every city has a sex and an age which have nothing to do with demography. Rome is feminine. So is Odessa. London is a teenager, an urchin, and in this hasn’t changed since the time of Dickens. Paris, I believe, is a man in his twenties in love with an older woman.”
John Berger
