More Reads For A Sunday Afternoon

"Helen of Troy awakens just before dawn to the sound of air raid sirens."

Yep. Dan Simmons takes on The Iliad, and Homer himself would approve.

A powerful alien race travels through time to interfere with the Trojan War. In Ilium, Simmons begins the task of recreating the greatest war story ever told, and in Olympus, he delivers the knockout punch.

Must reads.

Those sound like good reads.

Have you ever looked at John Ringo's "Counsel War" series?
