NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “An incredibly gripping, moving, and literate work of art, rarely does an author manage to re-create a moment in history with such mastery, authority, and psychological insight.”—Nelson DeMilleAt Thermopylae, a rocky mountain pass in northern Greece, the feared and admired Spartan soldiers stood three hundred strong. Theirs was a suicide mission, to hold the pass against the invading millions of the mighty Persian army.Day after bloody day they withstood the terrible onslaught, buying time for the Greeks to rally their forces. Born into a cult of spiritual courage, physical endurance, and unmatched battle skill, the Spartans would be remembered for the greatest military stand in history—one that would not end until the rocks were awash with blood, leaving only one gravely injured Spartan squire to tell the tale. . . .“A novel that is intricate and arresting and, once begun, almost impossible to put down.”—Daily News “A timeless epic of man and war . . . Pressfield has created a new classic deserving a place beside the very best of the old.”—Stephen Coonts

Há um mantra que escritores de verdade conhecem, mas aspirantes não. E a frase secreta é:NINGUÉM QUER LER SUAS M*RDAS.Reconhecer essa verdade dolorosa é o primeiro passo na transformação do escritor de amador para profissional."Quando você entende que ninguém quer ler suas merdas, você desenvolve empatia. Você adquire a habilidade que é indispensável para todos os artistas e empreendedores: a habilidade de transitar, em sua imaginação, entre o seu ponto de vista como escritor/pintor/vendedor e o ponto de vista do seu leitor/frequentador de galerias de arte/cliente. Você aprende a se perguntar, com cada sentença e cada frase: isso é interessante? Isso é divertido, desafiador ou inovador? Estou dando o suficiente para o leitor? Ele está entediado? Está indo para onde eu quero levá-lo?" - Steven Pressfield.Em Ninguém Quer Ler Suas M*rdas - reedição do livro lançado pela primeira vez no Brasil com o título Sua História Além do Ego - Steven Pressfield, autor do best-seller A Guerra da Arte, nos presenteia com mais uma obra indispensável para escritores, artistas e produtores de conteúdo em geral.O prefácio da edição brasileira é do coach e autor best-seller Geronimo Theml.

I have always been a soldier. I have known no other life. So begins Alexander's extraordinary confession on the eve of his greatest crisis of leadership. By turns heroic and calculating, compassionate and utterly merciless, Alexander recounts with a warrior's unflinching eye for detail the blood, the terror, and the tactics of his greatest battlefield victories. Whether surviving his father's brutal assassination, presiding over a massacre, or weeping at the death of a beloved comrade-in-arms, Alexander never denies the hard realities of the code by which he lives: the virtues of war. But as much as he was feared by his enemies, he was loved and revered by his friends, his generals, and the men who followed him into battle. Often outnumbered, never outfought, Alexander conquered every enemy the world stood against him-but the one he never saw coming. . . .
