    Ad Astra: Scipio and Hannibal. It’s really legitimately quite excellent. The author plays with some facts for storytelling purposes (such as having Scipio everywhere, and showing Marcellus as a bit of a straightforward, if intelligent, brute), but on the whole there is an adoring and positively granular amount of detail put into the portrayal of the Second Punic War and its protagonists.
