Fire from Heaven by Mary Renault

This was a really excellent look at the life and times of Alexander. The insights into the culture were what I really enjoyed, as in [b: The Persian Boy|67700|The Persian Boy (Alexander the Great, #2)|Mary Renault|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1404218341s/67700.jpg|509735]. However, in this one I got a little more mired in the politics. I wasn't always exactly sure who was acting, and why, or who was upset, and why, and why certain things were significant.
And I'm still confused about the snake. And Alexander's paternity. And his role in Philip's death. But it was fun to read, and maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention.
