Written as a fairy story for a girl named Gracie, this is the Alexander that medieval castle halls listened to: son of the exiled Egyptian magician-king Anectanabus, tamer of Bucephalus, conqueror of Darius and visitor to Jerusalem. As the conquests go on, the tale fills with enchanted castles in reedy lakes, strange beasts and marvels at the ends of the earth.

A charming retelling of the medieval Alexander romance for young readers and adults who love old legends. Download the free EPUB.
