Daughters of Bronze
Daughters of Bronze: A Novel of Troy | A. D. Rhine
4 posts | 3 read | 1 to read
Song of great sorrow. Even greater love. Lost between the timeless lines of Homers epic, the women of Troy finally stand to be counted. Their story is one youve never encountered, and it will change the fate of Troy forever. Andromache has proven herself a capable leader, but can she maintain that hard-won status now that she is the mother to the citys long-awaited heir? With enemies closing in, Andromache must bring together a divided city in time to make a final stand. Rhea is a Trojan spy, but she never expected to find love in the enemy camp. When the final battle lines are drawn, Rhea must decide where her loyalties lie and how much she is willing to lose. Helen is no longer the same broken woman first brought to Troy as a captive. Given a second chance at life, she must cast off her shroud of grief and use her healing gifts to save Troys greatest hope. Cassandra has seen Troys fate. But she knows the truth is only as valuable as the person who tells it . . . and few in Troy value her. All that is about to change. One hero will rise, another will fall . . . and this time, Cassandra will have her say. From the highest tower to the most humble alley, the bloody beaches to the dusty plain, Daughters of Bronze breathes life into the Troy of myth and history. It is an epic of a thousand invisible actions leading to a single moment, adding a refrain of unexpected light to the legend of Troy.

I did not realize this was a sequel, so found myself finding it hard to follow at the beginning. Once I got further into the story and sorted out the characters, I really enjoyed it. It is a telling of the mythological tale of Troy, but told from the point of view of the women. In spite of being a darkly violent and tragic tale, the strength of the women and their sisterhood made for a great read. Thanks to NetGalley for the digital ARC. 4/5 stars

The fall of Troy told by the women most impacted: Andromache, Helen, Cassandra, and Rhea.

Intense! & also part 2 of a duology!😅 I was familiar enough with Troy to know the general set up, so I didn‘t really feel lost jumping in the middle. Everyone‘s stories balanced nicely, & there was an element of hope throughout, even as you know the tragedy that is coming. Also, always love a Greek retelling that validates my Paris sucks belief.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
