The Windswept City

E-book


Experience the Trojan War like never before through the eyes of Asterius, a slave to the aging and homesick Helen. When young Asterius witnesses the murder of Palamedes in the Greek camp, his life becomes entwined with legendary figures like Odysseus, Hector, Achilles, and Agamemnon. In this dramatic retelling, Henry Treece infuses the epic with lyric beauty, providing thrilling descriptions of Hector's violent death, the final battles, and the legendary fall of Troy. The characters, including Helen herself, are imbued with a hint of humanity that renders their tragic fates all the more poignant.
