Has anyone read The Firebrand by Marion Bradley?

I read it when I was still in high school and ever since then, I haven't met anyone who read the same book. It's a story about the fall of Troy told from Kassandra's point of view. It was one of the books which opened my love for Greek mythology so it was a bit disappointing that I was the only one (a least from those I've asked :( ) who read it.

I haven't read this book but I think I will add it to my list. Love delving into ancient history and seeing it from another perspective. Thanks.

I read it years ago and I'd say it's one of her best! It was really well done and brought the history alive.
