Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield

I just completed the abridged audio edition of Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The protagonist Xeo recounts his life story among the Spartans in order to give the Presian King Xerxes an insight into the Spartans' unique character and bravery. The novel uses the stilted language of ancient epic, which made the audio edition particularly enjoyable.
