Robert Fabbri

Babylon, 323 BC: Alexander the Great is dead, leaving behind him the largest empire the world has ever seen. As his final breaths fade in a room of seven bodyguards, Alexander refuses to name a successor. But without a natural heir, who will take the reins? As the news of the king's death ripples across the land, leaving all in disbelief, the ruthless battle for the throne begins. What follows is a tangled web of scheming and plotting, with alliances quickly made and easily broken, each rival with their own agenda. But who will emerge victorious: the half-chosen; the one-eyed; the wildcat; the general; the bastard; the regent? In the end, only one man, or indeed woman, will be left standing…

The Three Paradises: Perfect for fans of Simon Scarrow and Bernard Cornwell

The cause of Alexander the Great's sudden death is no longer in doubt - it was murder. But by whom? As his former followers struggle for power, the bonds of family, friendship and political loyalties are tested to the limit. As is the strength of the formidable empire that Alexander had wrought. Never before has the Western world seen such turmoil, such a threat to civilisation.

An Empty Throne: 'Hugely enjoyable' Conn Iggulden

An Archias the Exile-Hunter short story

Archias, struggling actor, quick on his feet and even faster with his words, is at the end of his luck. Having escaped to Rhosos, on the edge of Macedon's territory, to evade the threat of the debt collectors, he has been prevented from going any further by the arrival of Alexander the Great's mighty army. And with it, those very same debt collectors.

So when the chance is given to him to earn enough money to be rid of his pursuers forever, he has to take it. Even if it means risking life and limb by attempting the most crazy of rescues - to bring back a kidnapped boy from inside the camp of Darius, King of Kings of the crumbling Persian empire. A camp that is on the eve of battle... As Alexander's troops draw nearer, and Darius's cavalry begin their war-cry, can Archias save himself, the boy, and his fellow rescuers, before it's too late?

Archias the Exile-Hunter: An Alexander's Legacy novella

Alexander the Great's sudden death has left his vast empire in chaos. War rages, cities fall and the lives of thousands are torn apart as his former generals struggle for a share. Alliances and betrayals are rife, and as one man threatens to gain an advantage, the others will not hesitate to plot his downfall. The one-eyed brute Antigonos is the most formidable power in the Western world and now has his eye on the jewel of the east: Babylon. As he schemes to seize it before returning to the West, his enemies join forces to stop him, mobilising fleets from Greece to Gaza. But only one warrior can claim the city.

Alexander's Legacy: Babylon

From the shattered empire, five kingdoms are emerging. Seleukos, triumphant in the capture of Babylon, now faces the challenge of holding onto his hard-won prize. One-eyed Antigonos and his son are newly reconciled and both hungry for revenge. But Antigonos has foes of his own. Driven by vengeance, widowed Artonis sides with Ptolemy, planning to thwart the one-eyed brute. The key to their success is Herakles, the sixteen-year-old illegitimate son of Alexander. To see him crowned, they will not only need an army but also to eliminate Kassandros, a powerful rival with his own designs on the throne of Macedon. Meanwhile in the north, Lysimachus broods. As loyalties shift like sand and political ambitions run rife, the stage is set for the greatest war in the ancient world. Who will win the fight for the greatest Kingdom in the ancient world? Let the games begin . . .

Archias the Exile-Hunter: The Siege of Tyros

Archias, struggling actor turned assassin, is finally out of luck. Alexander the Great has been informed of Archias' latest victim's death, and that it was his gold that was used to pay for the murder. Locked up awaiting Alexander's judgement, Archias believes his days are numbered.

Instead, Alexander gives him a new mission: infiltrate the island city of Tyros, currently under siege, kill the soldiers who are delaying Macedon's victory, and hold the King of Tyros captive until Alexander arrives. But Alexander makes no mention of Archias' fate, should he succeed in this almost impossible task - a task more like a suicide mission in fact. Can Archias win through, and make it out alive?
