Praise for this book
"Worthy of gracing the shelves alongside Renault and Miller, Daughters of Bronze is an epic feat. The ladies of the Trojan War are depicted in these brilliant pages with grace, eloquence, and an emotional depth to which many other authors can only aspire. The lyrical writing of A.D. Rhine sets this book apart from so many Greek myth reimaginings, bringing to life a tale as old as time in ways not yet seen before. A stellar accomplishment." - Claire M Andrews
"With a powerful poetic style, reminiscent of the past, and a modern perspective, Daughters of Bronze brings the women of war-torn Troy to vibrant, luminous life. Each page sings with the strength -- and sorrow -- of four voices, four stories, coming together in one shared chorus. Their song? Nothing is impossible when women find each other and fight back." - Lauren J A Bear
"An immersive story of female power, Daughters of Bronze transports readers behind the scenes of the Trojan War to expose unexpected villains and inspiring heroines whose intellect, courage, and solidarity shape history. The book reminds us of the power women wield, too often invisible but frequently vital. This beguiling page turner will leave readers mulling the fates long after they gobble up its pages." - Malayna Evans
"A moving tale in a time of bloody conflict and harrowing resolution, Daughters of Bronze evokes the power, the pain, and the hope of four legendary women trapped within Troy's walls as an epic war rages. It is a story told from behind the scenes, a story of the true weavers of history. Despite knowing their deeds may be forgotten, they fight for themselves and for one another, and seek to confound fate and embrace life in the face of almost certain tragedy." - Joel H Morris
"A.D. Rhine masterfully reweaves the fate of Troy with an emotional depth and heroism that rivals Homer's original epic. An astonishing reimaging of myth and history that shines light on the courageous figures long overshadowed by male perspectives." - MJ Pankey
"Only the accomplished historical novelist can transport us back in time so seamlessly that the past becomes as familiar as the present. The author of Daughters of Bronze has achieved just such a remarkable feat of the imagination and historical research. From the opening chapter, we are transported back in time to the siege of Troy mediated by a series of women whom history has unjustly overlooked. In prose that is both lyrical and compelling, we are invited to touch the beating heart of that doomed, ancient city and share the loves, fears and astonishing courage of the women who inhabited it. This novel is a tour de force." - Suzanne M Wolfe
