Seller Description
Hades’ Daughter is the first book in The Troy Game series by Australian author Sara Douglass. This historical fantasy novel reimagines ancient myths, weaving a tale that spans from the fall of Troy to the early history of Britain.   The story begins with Ariadne, betrayed by Theseus, who unleashes a curse that leads to the decay of the Labyrinths and the downfall of powerful city-states. A century later, Brutus of Troy, a descendant of Aeneas, accidentally kills his father and is exiled. Guided by visions, he leads his people to Albion (Britain) to establish a new kingdom. There, he encounters Genvissa, the sixth daughter-heir of Ariadne, who seeks to control the last Labyrinth and continue her ancestor’s revenge.    Douglass blends elements of Greek mythology with historical events, creating a complex narrative that explores themes of power, destiny, and the cyclical nature of history. The novel features a cast of characters whose lives are intricately connected through reincarnation and the mystical Troy Game—a powerful force that influences the fate of civilizations.
