The 4th century BC. A village in Syria. A woman, dressed in rags and covered in blisters and sores, is seen approaching on the road coming from the north. Suspicious of her, the villagers shout and throw rocks at her. She is struck and falls. She seems dead... Her story encompasses one of the great collective acts of heroism of the ancient world. She was the mistress of Xenophon, a general in the vast army of ten thousand Greek mercenaries from virtually every Greek city state that was employed by Cyrus the Younger, in his quest to seize the throne of Persia from his brother, Artaxerxes II.Manfredi, one of the world's experts, has created an rip-roaring adventure seen from the perspective of the women who accompanied the soldiers on their long journey. A new and intense account of the most celebrated march in man's history, by the acclaimed author of the Alexander trilogy.… (mere)

Corre el año 401 a.C. La guerra entre Atenas y Esparta ha terminado después de treinta años de hostilidades, pero una guerra civil está a punto de estallar en el Imperio persa entre Artajerjes y su hermano Ciro el joven. Este último contrata a un ejército de mercenarios griegos desmovilizados los cuales, tras la muerte de Ciro en la batalla de Cunaxa, se ven obligados a regresar a su patria a través de un país hostil, entre el acoso de las poblaciones y los recelos de los gobernantes. Una aventura que ha pasado a la historia como la retirada de los diez mil. Esta novela es la crónica de ese asombrosa aventura. Narrada por Abria, una joven que dejó todo para seguir a Jenofonte, el jefe de la expedición, tras la muerte de sus superiores, mantiene, junto al rigor de los hechos, el pulso de los sentimientos -amor y miedo, valor y desesperación- que hacen de las personas los protagonistas de la historia

Ve siècle avant J.-C. Un vent furieux souffle sur un petit village de Syrie. Abira, maîtresse de Xénophon, général du prince perse Cyrus le Jeune, raconte son destin, mêlé à l'un des plus grands actes d'héroïsme collectif du monde antique. Jeune femme illettrée et éperdue d'amour, elle verra son amant soulever une armée de 10000 mercenaires afin de renverser le frère du prince, Artaxerxès Il. Mais les Spartiates jetteront rapidement le trouble sur les événements et Abira découvrira qu'ils jouent un double jeu... Spectatrice de ces grandes batailles, d'importantes décisions stratégiques, et même d'errances insoutenables, Abira est plongée au coeur de l'action. Bravant la poussière des champs de bataille de l'Antiquité, l'armée des Dix Mille de Valerio Manfredi entraîne le lecteur dans un tourbillon de complots, de violence et de passions.

Sensacional recorrido lleno de adrenalina por la travesía recorrida para volver a casa del llamado ejército de "Los diez mil" Un relato dinámico lleno de poderosas imágenes y sumamente entretenido. De esos que una vez comenzados se devoran. ( )

From the perspective of a military historical fiction, a retelling of a Greek classic, this story is very satisfying. From the author's notes, the Anabasis was a major influence on Alexander the Great - in reading it, you can see why. In many ways, Lost Army is more educational than entertaining (unless, of course, you are entertained by the education, which I was). The excellent visual descriptions, the pervasive nuances of Spartan military life, the harshness of the lands and climates, the political complexities and the sheer, unbelievable trials that those soldiers had to endure, are all factors that made it worth reading.

An imaginative rewriting of Xenophon's account of the army sent against the Great King (of Persia) through the eyes of Abira, the fictional lover of Xenophon. Manfredi captures well the emotional and physical cost of the lost army's winter journey across high mountains. ( )
