Product Description
Product Description
Helen is renowned as the most beautiful woman in the world. Her divine beauty will lead her to a lifetime of adventure--from her kidnapping at age 12, through an arranged marriage, to a passionate affair that will ultimately bring about the Trojan War.
Cassandra, the sister of Helen's true love, has the gift, or curse, to predict the future. When she foresees the ruin of her family and city, caused by Helen's arrival in Troy, she is outraged. Yet Cassandra cannot help being drawn to Helen, and as the war rages around them, the two young women develop a deep friendship.
Through their eyes, the classic tale of the Trojan War is retold in an immediate and fascinating way.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is one of the best books I've ever read. Cassandra, Helen, and the other people in the book are fasinating to read about. I was so into this book that when I started about 2/3 of the way into it, I didn't put it down until I finished it. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance and adventure.

Inside the walls of Troy is an amazingly good book. It seemes hitoricly acurate, and teaches you things, without sounding like a textbook. it also has a wonderful and well- developed storyline. This is one book I would definately reccomend.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is one of the most creative, imaginative, dramatic, and heartbreaking stories that I have ever read. It shows the conquest of Troy from the women's point of view, and gives them a chance to tell their story.

It is a nerve gripping, totally sensational novel...
The way the writer expresses his feelings is very impressive. The type of language used, and begining the story with Helen at 12, allows the reader to feel much more at ease.
