Description
by Leo Carrington (Author)
This is exactly what a discerning reader should expect from historical fiction-rigorous verisimilitude, complex characterization, and an enthralling plot." --Kirkus Reviews
Born in Greece; raised in the unforgiving streets of ancient Rome, Alexander fights for survival-and dreams of glory. His wrestling prowess earns him the chance to train at Palatine Hill's prestigious palaestra. His path to greatness demands more than sheer strength.
Under the relentless eye of a legendary trainer, Alexander must master both body and mind, confronting doubt, ambition, and the shadows of his family's past. As he rises in Rome, his Greek heritage calls him home, forcing him to question where his true destiny lies.
A powerful tale of resilience and triumph, The Contender from Delos is a gripping journey of identity, courage, and self-discovery set against the vivid backdrop of the ancient world.
