Belisarius
A diptych in two volumes
The life of Justinian's general, told twice. Strategos follows the history Procopius published. Martys covers the same years through the eyes of Antonina, Belisarius's wife, with the secret history Procopius kept in his drawer running underneath.
Read Strategos first, then Martys. The two volumes cover the same years, so the second changes how you read the first.
