Lord of the Silver Bow
by David Gemmell
✅ For years my partner has been telling me I need to read David Gemmell's Troy trilogy and for years it has been on my tbr pile. Finally this year I ticked it off my list and boy it was sure worth the wait.
⚱️A realist reimagining of the legend of Troy and it's demise, David Gemmell proves he is a god of heroic fantasy. A master of his craft, Gemmell's work is character driven and focuses on the exploits of some of the major players of the Greek and Trojan conflict including Odysseus, Hector and Andromache.
⚔️ Devoid of the gods, the trilogy is seen through the eyes of Dardanian Prince Helikaon and places the fate of the two warring nations solely in the hands of their mortal heroes. Gemmell deftly explores the struggles and burden that come with destiny and does so with great compassion and humanity.
