SIMMONS, DAN — Olympos

New York, EOS/HarperTorch. 2006, 1st Pbk Ed. (ISBN: 0380817934) Soft cover. Book, "Beneath the gaze of the gods, the mighty armies of Greece and Troy met in fierce and glorious combat, scrupulously following the t ext set forth in Homer"s timeless narrative. But that was before one observer -- Twenty-first Century scholar Thomas Hockenberry -- stirred the bloody brew; before an enraged Achilles joined forces with his archenemy Hector; and before the fleet-footed mankiller turned his murderous wrath on Zeus, Hera, Athena, Aphrodite, Apollo, and the entire pantheon of divine manipulators. all bets are off. Very Good +.
