In an age of Gods and Heroes, a love born of war became legend. A masterful retelling of the saga of the Trojan War-- of the remarkable love it engendered-- from an extraordinary new voice in historical fiction.

"A treat..... Franklin grants to Briseis a fresh, wry voice and a way with a descriptive phrase that breaths life into the historical material.... a gracefully structured narrative that is sure to leave readers of intelligent historical fiction eager for Franklin's next venture"... PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
