Posthomerica by Quintus Smyrnaeus is the missing link in the myth: the lost sequel that Homer never wrote.
In this new modern prose version, the legend lives on with unprecedented fluidity and narrative force. From the glorious charges of the Amazons led by Penthesilea to the tragic arrival of Memnon, to the event that marked the imagination of the West: the cunning of the Wooden Horse. You will relive the last, devastating night of Troy, amidst flames, betrayals, and the desperate courage of the vanquished, until the fatal shipwreck of the Greek fleet.

An epic and brutal work, transforming the ancient text into a vibrant, cinematic tale. Discover the final fate of Achilles, the horror of Polyxena's sacrifice, and Aeneas' escape to a new horizon. The myth of Troy has never been so close.
