Last of the Amazons

Pressfield's blend of myth and history feels so seamless. I'm curious what inspired the choice to focus on this particular myth and how much of it is rooted in historical research.

The book celebrates their strength but also highlights their vulnerabilities. I wonder if this tension was intentional to challenge stereotypical views.

Shifting the narrative viewpoint gave it a fresh feel, but I’m curious whether that was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
