Tom Holland, the bestselling author of Rubicon, has agreed to be a speaker for Ancient Worlds during a week-long event (Nov. 20 - Nov 27) to discuss his books, ancient history, and more. He was famous for his book on Ancient Rome, and his more recent Persian Fire, which is an analysis of the entire Graeco-Persian War, promises to make a similar splash.
This has led to the brainstorm to try to set up a permanent committee at AW to seek out, schedule, and coordinate having authors, in various historical disciplines important to our eight worlds, to come 'visit' with us and discuss their areas of history. The proposed name for this project is The Symposion Series. Keep posted for further details!
