Troy by Adele Geras
Inside the ancient city of Troy, the cries belong to the women of Troy who have seen their menfolk die and suffer before their eyes. This is the story of two sisters. Marpessa, the younger, is gifted with God-sight and can see the Immortals. She is handmaiden to Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world. Xanthe, kind and loving, tends the warriors in the Blood Room, where the wounded are carried in from the battle. Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, bored with the endless dreary war, decided to play with the two girls.| SKU | Unavailable |
