Publisher Description
As "Funeral Games" opens, Alexander the Great lies dying. Around his body gather the generals, the provincial satraps and the royal wives, already competing for the prizes of power and land. Only Bagaos, the Persian boy mourning in the shadows wants nothing. Tracing the events of the fifteen years following Alexander's death, "Funeral Games" sees his almighty empire disintergrate, and brings Mary Renault's Alexander trilogy to a dramatic close.
