The Fire Brand by Marion Zimmer Bradley
RC 27497
A retelling of the legend of Troy, focusing on Kassandra, daughter of the
Queen of Troy. The story sets up a duality between masculine and feminine
views
of the world, partly by having Kassandra experience visions of events as
seen through the eyes of her missing twin brother, Paris.
This is an older book but one that I had not read yet. It was on 5
cassettes. It was written with a great deal of detail and it took me a
while to get through it. I have read other Marion Zimmer Bradley books and
have enjoyed her writing. I'd give this one a 5 out of 5. Not as intense as
some other books I've read but still a great word picture of the time
period.
Happy reading,
Carla/TexasRed
