Description
Owls to Athens by Harry Turtledove is a captivating tale of adventure and intrigue set in ancient Greece. After navigating long and perilous journeys, Menedemos and Sostratos return to the City of Athens just in time for the Dionysia festival. As they settle into life on land, their experiences are filled with trade negotiations, romantic entanglements, and the complexities of Hellenic society. Life in Athens is not without its dangers, particularly when Menedemos becomes embroiled in a tumultuous affair with one of the city's most influential women. Against this richly detailed backdrop, Turteltaub weaves a story of sibling loyalty, cultural clashes, and the ever-present threat of treachery. Turteltaub's meticulous research brings the ancient world to vivid life, immersing readers in the sights, sounds, and passions of fourth-century BCE Athens.
