The most ancient of stories, Homer's Iliad, is resuscitated by the fertile imagination of Nick Berry, woven in with his exciting swords-and-sorcery character Zona, whose name means life-a princess of the most extraordinary vitality and youthful energy who brings justice and succour to the trapped Helen of Troy. She may or may not have been at Troy, but could history and legend have unfolded as this gifted author conceives it, had she been there? Helped by her sprightly sidekick Xanthia (whose Greek name means 'yellow' in keeping with her blonde hair) and an old flame, her reason for being there is to fashion a new start for princess Helen. In doing so, might she change history and myth? Forget X-Boxes, other computer games. If it's action, non-stop excitement and fantasy you're after, pick up this book!
