I've got to say, this is the 5th book I have listened to of yours. It had left me breathless like the rest. The slow build up of the story up to the end is just chefs kiss. I didn't expect to get even more invested into Clash of Empires than I was into Hannibal but you swept me off my feet. I enjoyed the Carthiginian representative appearing but I was saddened you haven't done anything with his Roman counterpart appearing as well but beggars can't be choosers. the Macedonian and Roman story conclusions were very well done and I couldn't think of a better ending. I will move on next to the Eagles stories and hear them. I hope they live up the quality you have put into these.
