Description: In the tradition of Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Firebrand, Sarah B. Franklin gives the Trojan War a human face. "Daughter of Troy" is a retelling of that mythic struggle, as seen through the eyes of Briseis, princess and seer. When her husband is killed and her land conquered, she is claimed in battle as the captive mistress of Achilles, the legendary hero. The chains of love bind Briseis to Achilles more than any physical restraints ever could. But even stronger forces are poised to tear them apart. For King Agamemnon, commander of the forces besieging Troy, must give up his own captive woman, Chryseis, and it is not long before his eyes fall upon Achilles's prize...
