Gates of Fire : An Epic Novel of the Battle of Thermopylae

An amazing tale. Really takes you back to the days of this battle to understand the Spartans and the world they lived in. Characters that come to life. Hard to put down. Gory and realistic war scenes that are hard to read yet not gratuitively violent. Highly recommended.
