Valerio Massimo Manfredi (b. 1943) is a renowned Italian historian, archaeologist, writer, screenwriter and journalist, a member of the famous Anabasis expedition. Author of works of fiction on historical themes, Manfredi has been honored with such prestigious awards as the American Biographical Institute's Man of the Year Award, the Hemingway Award, and the Bancarella Award. Manfredi's best-selling novel "The Last Legion" was the basis for the Hollywood blockbuster of the same name (2007) directed by Doug Lefler and starring Colin Firth, Aishwarya Rai and Ben Kingsley. Among the historical-adventure books Manfredi rave reviews from readers and critics, a magnificent novel about ancient Sparta. Talos was born a cripple and by the harsh laws of his warlike country was doomed to death. The boy is thrown to be eaten by wolves, and only by a lucky chance he is saved by an old shepherd from the slave caste of the Ilots. The wise old man teaches young Talos to resist the evil fate and gives him in the hands of a formidable weapon, predicting the young man a glorious future ... The novel "Spartan" is released in a new translation.
