Beschreibung

The House of Atreus is cursed. A bloodline tainted by a generational cycle of violence and vengeance. This is the story of three women, their fates inextricably tied to this curse, and the fickle nature of men and gods.

Clytemnestra
The sister of Helen, wife of Agamemnon - her hopes of averting the curse are dashed when her sister is taken to Troy by the feckless Paris. Her husband raises a great army against them, and determines to win, whatever the cost.

Cassandra
Princess of Troy, and cursed by Apollo to see the future but never to be believed when she speaks of it. She is powerless in her knowledge that the city will fall.

Elektra
The youngest daughter of Clytemnestra and Agamemnon, Elektra is horrified by the bloodletting of her kin. But, can she escape the curse, or is her own destiny also bound by violence?

Im Mittelteile hätte ich mir gerne ein wenig mehr charakterliche Tiefe gewünscht, nicht alle Beweggründe der Figuren waren immer nachvollziehbar. Das Ende hat mir aber gut gefallen und endlich den Fokus mehr auf Elektra gelegt.

really loved Clytemnestra's storyline and Cassandras's but Elektra was just so fucking annoying, she is portrayed as this little idiot. had more sympathy for Clytemnestra. Overall meh, cause what I initially wanted from this book was more insight into Elektra's story.
