I picked up this book because of the obvious historical connection. I found it a fairly interesting read if one didn’t expect excessive historical background. It’s build around the siege of Troy and provides an interesting idea for the famed “Trojan Horse.” The jacket description is a bit wild (it mentions bringing down the walls of Jericho, which isn’t in the book).
I’d recommend reading this more as fantasy than as historical fiction and give it 3 of 5 stars.
