Cassandra of Troy - Mike French, Vittorio Mattioli

Cassandra of Troy

Cassandra, princess of Troy, is the only person who knows her city is doomed, but no one believes her. Past, present and future jumble together, so she can hardly work out which moment she is living in, let alone save her family and people. It’s nearly impossible for her to untangle fact from fiction. What actually happened with Apollo? Which of the many versions of her brother Paris is the real one? Maybe if she can pin down what’s true, she’ll be able to carve out the least-worst path for those she cares about.

While each book can be read separately, and in any order, there is an underlying thread that ultimately connects all these characters and provides a wider view of what it was to be a woman in the ancient Greek world.
