This is a retelling of [b:Xenophon's Anabasis, or the Expedition of Cyrus 13687135 Xenophon's Anabasis, or the Expedition of Cyrus Michael A.

I found, however, that I didn't care for any of the characters. YMMV.Fair warning – if you read this book, be prepared for very graphic descriptions of the horrors and brutality of the Greek Hoplite type of warfare.
