Description 

The Silence of the Girls – A gripping retelling of The Iliad, told from the perspective of Briseis, a Trojan queen turned slave and concubine of Achilles. Her story of resilience, survival, and silent resistance gives voice to the forgotten women of war.

The Women of Troy – The war is over, but the suffering is not. In the aftermath of Troy’s fall, Briseis and the captive Trojan women must navigate their new, uncertain fates in a Greek camp filled with vengeance, betrayal, and shattered dreams.

The Voyage Home (Hardback) – The long journey back from Troy begins, but for the women held captive by the Greeks, escape, revenge, and freedom are distant dreams. As they sail toward an unknown future, old wounds reopen, and new power struggles emerge.

Blending historical fiction with mythology, Pat Barker delivers a raw, haunting, and beautifully written trilogy that brings courage, strength, and defiance to the forefront of these ancient tales. A must-read for fans of Madeline Miller, Natalie Haynes, and Greek myth retellings.
