vivid focus the mythic story of the Trojan War, with all of its visually dramatic elements

'The Story of the Iliad Homer's epic poem, The Illiad, is one of the greatest adventure stories of all
time. In it, the abduction of the legendary beauty, Helen of Troy, leads to a conflict in which even

Sutcliff makes such extraordinary stories as those of those Trojan horse, of Aphrodite and the
golden apple, and of the fearsome warrior women Amazons, accessible to contemporary young
people. 'From the Hardcover edition. Read more See all Editorial Reviews
