What about Judith E French's The Conqueror? ... It's very fanon {is that what it's called when it follows a more personal liking instead of fact or whatever?}} This line here cracks me up- Were you a man (Roxanne), I could choose no one better to ride beside me. Not even Hephaestion ...
But I do like Hephaestion's character in it. From what I've read so far anyway. The author seems fond of Alexander and Hephaestion's friendship.
Any thoughts?
