    1: A Broken Horse: Episode One
    Jul 13 2023
    Part One The threat of war to reclaim Helen from Troy is no longer idle, as the smaller settlements and lesser cities surrounding Troy suffer from brutal Achaean raids. Though Helen has resigned herself to her fate, Paris must persuade his family that his stolen bride is worth fighting for--and finds an unexpected ally.

    An introduction to A BROKEN HORSE and the myths and questions that inspired me to finally tackle the Trojan War--a story I swore I'd never write--followed by a prologue from Helen's perspective and Paris's first chapter.
