lukas_sotola 's review for:

The Histories by Herodotus

---

What book contains a king ordering his servant to surreptitiously look at his naked wife, a poet riding a dolphin, a king declaring war on the wind, a king having the ocean whipped for being disobedient, flying snakes, ants the size of foxes, *and* an epic battle between Greece and Persia? This one. This one does.
