What this book is about
The concluding volume of the Troy trilogy, co-written with Stella Gemmell after David's death, dramatizes the final siege of Troy. Following Helikaon, Odysseus, and the doomed House of Priam to their appointed ends, the novel is epic in scope and unflinching about the human cost of war. A worthy farewell to one of fantasy's great storytellers.
