Lord of the Silver Bow

Troy, Book 1

De: David Gemmell

Narrado por: Thomas Judd

Three lives will change the destiny of nations. Helikaon, the young prince of Dardania, haunted by a scarred and traumatic childhood. The priestess Andromache, whose fiery spirit and fierce independence threatens the might of kings. And the legendary warrior Argurios, cloaked in loneliness and driven only by thoughts of revenge.

In Troy they find a city torn apart by destructive rivalries - a maelstrom of jealousy, deceit and murderous treachery. And beyond its fabled walls blood-hungry enemies eye its riches and plot its downfall. It is a time of bravery and betrayal; a time of bloodshed and fear. A time for heroes.

My absolute favorite!!!

Romance, tragedy, battle, humor and heart. Artistically blended onto a masterpiece. Can't wait to start the next book.

Interesting take on the classic tale

Lord of the Silver Bow is my first David Gemmell book i've read and i am so happy that i did read his book. The book is very entertaining and never lagged from page 1 to the end there was something interesting happening.

As the series titles, this story is about the Trojan war but it is not about the common Helen and Paris story. The story revolves around Helikaon and Andromache and their lives and politics and the lifestyle of eastern and western kingdoms during that age. This change in the main characters made the story very refreshing and new way of looking at the old and classic story.

The secondary characters also was very well developed like Argurios, Priam, Laodike etc. at the end of the book i needed more and very soon ill start the second book of the trilogy and excited to start other books and series of David Gemmell.

Great read!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I truly enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the rest of the series, Narator did a great job and kept my interest throughout

A brilliant re-imagining of timeless epic the Iliad

This is a brilliant re-imagining of the timeless epic, the Iliad. But it is so much more. Several intertwined live stories, courageous heroes fighting for honor and glory, and justice meted out to the villains. Added to this is the poetic beauty of the writing. An the splendid narration makes for a perfect listen.
