This books is the tits. Very true to the historical side and very compelling for the fictional side. I haven’t had to suspend belief for anything to make sense an I often question what is fiction in the first place with how naturally the story is woven in

OH YEAH BABY, anything is better than fever house. gates of fire is a historical fiction recounting the last survivor of the battle of Thermopylae to king xerxes and his court of historians. It feels like reading cerce or song of Achilles by Madeline miller and I’m loving it!
