SANDY SPRINGS, Ga., June 7, 2021 (Newswire.com) - William A. Lamon is a native of Atlanta, Georgia, and a passionate student of classical history. His academic and professional careers have led him to many places throughout the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. With the completion of his new audiobook "The Last Shades of Scarlet: Wolves of Laconia," readers can experience a mesmerizing and fascinating saga that provides a glance into ancient times with trials and tribulations not so different from our own.

William states, "With Athenian power and wealth growing, many turned to Sparta for assistance as they were seen as the only city-state in Greece capable of balancing Athenian power. The collection of city-states allied to Athens was known as the Delian League, and this consisted of many coastal and island city-states on the Aegean and Adriatic. Those allied with Sparta were known as the Peloponnesian League, the most significant members being Corinth, Boeotia, Elis, Melos, Pylos, Mantinea, and Epidaurus."

Published by Audiobook Network, author William A Lamon's new audiobook is a riveting tale that follows the daunting journey of a young Spartan, Adronikos, and his mentor, Gylippus, during the Peloponnesian War. Mixed with true historical details, this story brings ancient Greece and all of its turmoil to life.

As a youth, Adronikos is formally trained to be a warrior and assassin. However, he also discovers a forbidden love with a childhood friend, a local helot who exists outside the realm of the acceptable social hierarchy. Since she is not Spartan, it is a relationship fraught with danger. But as chaos is emerging in Greece once again, Adronikos must focus on his mission to aid his mentor on crucial tasks that may determine the war's outcome.

With the battle now on Sparta's doorstep, Adronikos and his lover must face the costs of war and learn hard truths about love, betrayal, death and destiny.
