A wild-eyed drunk in an abandoned temple shoves aside a young boy who has come to his aid. Little do we know that this shameful creature and this patient boy will go down as two of the most brilliant minds in history. This is the story of Aristotle and his young pupil, who will become known to the world as Alexander the Great. A mystery that explores how the Macedonians went from a small kingdom to leading all the Greek states, and how Aristotle painstakingly set the moral compass of Alexander, the man who would conquer the known world.
