A Song of War by Kate Quinn

From seven masters of historical fiction—including New York Times bestseller Kate Quinn—comes a richly imagined anthology of stories which bring the epic tale of the Trojan War to life.

Troy: city of gold, gatekeeper of the East, haven of the god-born and the lucky, a city destined to last a thousand years. But the Fates have other plans—the Fates, and a woman named Helen. In the shadow of Troy’s gates, all must be reborn in the greatest war of the ancient world: slaves and queens, heroes and cowards, seers and kings . . . and these are their stories.

A young princess and an embittered prince join forces to prevent a fatal elopement.

A tormented seeress challenges the gods themselves to save her city from the impending disaster.

A tragedy-haunted king battles private demons and envious rivals as the siege grinds on.

A doomed hero launches a desperate plan to bring the war to a close. 

A grizzled archer and a desperate Amazon risk their lives to avenge their dead.

A trickster conceives the greatest trick of all.

A goddess’s son battles to save the spirit of Troy even as the walls are breached in fire and blood.

Seven authors vividly recreate the Trojan War: its heroes, its villains, its survivors, its dead. Who will lie forgotten in the embers, and who will rise to shape the bloody dawn of a new age?

“Original and ingenious…The attention to historic detail is superb…an extremely well-written read” — Historical Novel Society on Day of Fire
