About the Book

Just when you think the Trojan War is going to repeat itself on the moon of Jupiter, aliens invade, and the reincarnated Greeks and Trojans find themselves allies against their mysterious new foes.  And then things get complicated.

This year's NaNo project.

I was planning on doing an "as-I-go" serialization of it, but the way it's shaping up it's going to need much more re-writing than I was expecting, and more importantly, it's looking like it's going to need to be split up into two (or possibly even three!) novels, so I thought it was best not to continue attempting to serialize it.
