Eryx: A Spartan Tale by Jaclyn Osborn
4.0
"One day, when I died in battle with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other...."
This book made me cry more the than Axios. Being in Eryx's head and watching the model soldier have real regrets about his blind obedience was inspiring but heartbreaking. He didn't have his happily ever after until he put his weapons down, stopped fighting in the midst of battle, and held his dying lover allowing death to take them into the afterlife together for all eternity.
"If we fall today, my soul will find yours. For I am eternally yours… in this life and the next.”
So I had to create some fanart for these two lovers that you can see on my Instagram.

They live on ⭐ (the idea for the art came to me after reading both books and while listening to 'Now we are free' from the movie Gladiator)
