When Agamemnon angers the formidable Achilles, the battle for Troy seems doomed to failure. When Agamemnon is threatened with mutiny by a disillusioned army he changes his tactics, ordering a series of attacks on the allies of Troy, thus depriving the city of reinforcements, trade, and supplies - but even this cannot draw the Trojans out from behind their walls. Son of the King of Olympus and savior of Thebes, Heracles is adored by all. Eperitus, captain of Odysseus' guards, is tormented by his own oath - to protect the very man who murdered his daughter. Heracles has done something unforgivable. But while Agammenon is still determined to avenge himself upon Troy for the theft of Helen by Paris, they are all trapped by the oath that Odysseus created. Dispirited, bitter, and frustrated by the war, Odysseus and his men think lovingly of home. The Greeks, with Achilles at their head, have inflicted numerous defeats on the Trojans, but Troy itself still stands. The ​siege of Troy is in its 10th year, in the third book continuing from _King of Ithaca_ and _The Gates of Troy_. ![]()
