The golden age of Athens: the jewel in the Greek empire.

Standing like a colossus over the city is Pericles: politician, general, architect of the city's fortunes.

Yet some look on jewels with envy.

Forever a threat from the south, Sparta will not kneel to its rival. From their ranks rises a young boy - ruthless, courageous, hungry. Soon he will lead them.

Pericles is no longer young. His city is divided - against the Spartan threat, against him. Can Athens' most famous son rouse its citizens to war?

Will the Lion of Athens roar one final time?
