Colleen McCullough has written a little known volume on the Trojan War. It is written from the perspective of all the major players. Agamemnon, Clytemnestra, Iphigenia, Achilles, Odysseus and all the rest you know from the legends of this great battle that literally changed the face of the world.
This is not just a battle montage, it recounts not only the epic war that lasted for 10 years, but the back story of Helen and Paris and the legendary "love" that caused both countries to battle for their very lives.
This book is written with an unusual perspective, one that I haven't seen since Stephen King's The Stand. Enjoy! I did!
