«Alejandro, el conquistador de un imperio» is the historical novel by Gisbert Haefs, published by Planeta DeAgostini in hardcover (457 pages, in Spanish).
The novel reconstructs the life of Alexander the Great from his origins in the Macedonian court to the campaigns that led him to seize a vast empire. Haefs combines the account of battles and military strategies with political intrigue and the personal bonds of the protagonists, offering a portrait of the conqueror far removed from simple legend.
Second installment of Gisbert Haefs's Alexander series, originally published as «Alexander in Asien» (1993). Translated by Adán Kovacsics; belongs to the Novelas de Grecia y Roma collection.
For readers of historical fiction interested in the figure of Alexander the Great and the world of classical antiquity.

He has written historical novels such as Alexander, won both the Deutscher Science Fiction Preis and Kurd-Laßwitz-Preis in science fiction, and placed at the Deutscher Krimi Preis for crime fiction. As a translator he worked on a much criticized effort at translating works of Jorge Luis Borges into German.
