Song of Sacrifice Audiobook

Janell Rhiannon narrates Song of Sacrifice, a Greek myth and Trojan War retelling. Embark on an unforgettable journey to a time of gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines, where Greek myths and the Trojan War converge in chronological order. Song of Sacrifice breathes new life into these ancient tales, conjuring a fantastical world that will captivate your heart. Song of Sacrifice opens in the ancient city of Troy, the shining citadel in Anatolia where Queen Hecuba and King Priam rule. Their royal peace is shattered when a prophecy about their unborn son threatens everything they hold dear. Across the wine-dark sea in the west, the kingdoms of the Argives, Achaeans, and Danaans (the Greeks) transition power from old to new blood. By marrying the sisters Clytemnestra and Helen of Sparta, Agamemnon and Menelaus lay claim to Mycenae and Sparta. And Odysseus brings his new queen, Penelope, to Ithaca after his father, Laertes, cedes him the throne. All is well until the Trojan prophecy collides with the kidnapping of Helen of Sparta. The rest is "myth-story." Lose yourself in this sweeping saga of Greek myths that unravel the tragedies and celebrate the triumphs of the Trojan War era. **This is for mature listeners.
