ALEXANDER, ACTION HERO

Alexander wasn’t your typical teen.

After all, how many kids could say they led an army in battle? Or had a guy like Aristotle as their personal tutor? Or ruled a whole country while their dad traveled on business?

In short, Alexander was a “phenom”:
A great athlete, a brilliant student, a ruthless warrior, and a famous king.


By eighteen, Alexander led as a general. By twenty, he ruled all of ancient Greece. By twenty-five, he had conquered ancient Persia. By thirty-two, he was king of the world. So what went wrong? Actually, what didn’t?

How Alexander went from hero to zero is an adventure in and of itself. And for the first time, you can read his true story the way it should be read—with humor, fun and a heavy dose of action/adventure.
So come meet the kid who rocked the world and, for a brief time, ruled the planet. If, by the end, you don’t agree Alexander deserved the nickname “the Great,” you’ll have to admit “the Amazing” works pretty good too.
