From the palacecity of Persepolis, Cyrus the Great, Darius, Xerxes, and their heirs reigned supreme for centuries until the conquests of Alexander of Macedon brought the empire to a swift and unexpected end in the late 330s BCE.In Persians, historian Lloyd LlewellynJones tells the epic story of this dynasty and the world it ruled. Drawing on Iranian inscriptions, cuneiform tablets, art, and archaeology, he shows how the Achaemenid Persian Empire was the worlds first superpowerone built, despite its imperial ambition, on cooperation and tolerance.

I picked up 'The Age of the Great Kings' hoping for a light read, but it’s a bit dense in parts. The information is great, but sometimes I felt overwhelmed by the details. Still worth a read for its insights into Persian culture.

Great content, but pricey
I really enjoyed 'The Age of the Great Kings,' but I feel like it’s a bit overpriced for what you get. The information is excellent, but the book could use a few more images. Still, it’s filled with interesting insights about Persian history.

Came damaged—disappointed
I was excited to get 'The Age of the Great Kings,' but it arrived with a dent in the cover. The content looks promising, but I was really bummed about the damage. Hoping to get a replacement that’s in better condition.
