Simon Brown
Ten stories. One legend.
Diomedes, Paris, Helen, Achilles, Agamemnon, Cassandra and Odysseus all feature in this collection of Simon Brown's acclaimed "Troy stories". Since the early 1980s Simon Brown has engaged readers with a series of alternate takes on the Trojan War. "Love and Paris", "Imagining Ajax", "Why my wife left me, and other stories, by Diomedes" and the brilliant "The masque of Agamemnon" are collected here for the first time, alongside lesser known tales and the original novella, "The cup of Nestor".
Collection features an introduction by Garth Nix, author of Sabriel, Abhorsen and the Keys to the Kingdom series.
