Andromache will win you over with her entertaining embellishment of the classic tale of Troy!
Hector's spirited wife has waited thousands of years to tell her story-a captivating saga of love, loss, friendship, and misplaced trust. Told from her wry perspective, the characters of ancient Troy come alive: Paris, the lighthearted lover of beauty; dependable Hector, the trainer of horses; and Cassandra, whose prophecies are correct but never heeded.
By luck and pluck, Andromache marries Hector, Prince of Troy. She's happily living her life when his brother Paris brings Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world, to the city. Andromache is not pleased to be tasked with helping the aloof beauty assimilate, but through the long years of war, the two women develop hidden strengths that enable them to take charge of their fates.
Andromache's Story weaves humor and humanity into a tale traditionally weighted down by tragedy, and the engaging narrative builds toward an ending that puts a new spin on this classic myth.
Andromache's Story is perfect for readers who crave:
- Fanciful retellings of Greek mythology
- Relatable, caring women with wit and intelligence
- An unusual happy ending
