Second part to myth-busting, suspense-filled series for a late middle grade and early YA audience
The second installment of the adventure-filled Twin World series brings myths to life and takes readers to ancient Troy.
El(ektra) is a twin-worlder: in modern-day Helsinki, she remembers her other life in Atlantis. With the help of her friends, she strives to help Troi, who also lives in two times. In besieged Troy, Prince Troilos and his sister Kassandra cling to each other. Kassandra has long foreseen visions of Troy’s destruction, but no one believes her. When a massive wooden horse, crafted as an offering to the gods, is brought to the city square, the countdown begins. From inside the horse, Greek warriors emerge, destroying Troy’s kingdom and royal family. Will El manage to help Troi before Troy collapses?
One of the most famous tales of Greek mythology comes alive in the stunning second part of Siri Kolu’s series. Moving between modern Helsinki and ancient Troy, the story sweeps readers away and masterfully builds a bridge between the past and the present.
