My Current Read:- Alexander: Child of a dream
Alexander has learnt the lessons of life from Aristotle and has come back to Pella, his birth town. He has been made as Commander of the Vanguards and given a troop comprising of his closest friends Hephaestion, Seleucus, Ptolemy, Periccadus and others. He has experienced the real pleasure of love making with an experienced prostitute named Pancaspe.
Reflections
I am now deeply absorbed in the life and making of Alexander. The book is so absorbing that given a chance, I would stop doing everything and finish the trilogy. Only if someone made money on my behalf! How I wish !

My Current Read:- Alexander: Child of a dream
I started reading this book because I am very interested in Greek Mythology and intrigued by it at times. A friend of mine, who is a voracious reader suggested to start with this one.
It's very interesting. Am at a phase when Alexander is 10, has made a "Until Death" friendship pact with Hephaestion and has saved a girl from the mines in Mount Pangoes and has named her Leptine.
To be honest, I never knew Cleopatra was Alexander's sister until I started reading this book! That shows my History skills ;)
And I am now much more intrigued by the Greek Gods Zeus, and specially Dionysus.
By the way, there is this Greek restaurant in Piccadilly Circus, London named after Dionysus. Try it out. I have and the food is amazing!
