I have enjoyed reading lots of myths. This is about Greek Mythology it is a fiction book. It is about Helen of Troy the most beautiful woman in Greece. Helen was stolen from her husband the King of Sparta and taken to Troy and this started a ten year battle which ended with a horse being left for the Trojans. I liked Achilles because I found out that this is where the saying your achilles heel came from. I would recommend it.
