Book
Troy has fallen. After 10 years of war, the Greeks make their way back to their own lands -- but what homes now await them? Agamemnon must return to his wife Clytemnestra, who has been nursing her rage since he sacrificed their daughter to the gods for a favourable wind. Her revenge will know no bounds. Meanwhile, Odysseus has angered the god Poseidon and he is cursed to wander the seas, facing angry monsters and possessive demi-gods as he attempts to return to Ithaca and his patient, clever wife Penelope. The final chapter to Stephen Fry's retellings of the Greek Myths, it weaves together the final threads of his mythological tapestry.
