The Trojan War is usually seen as a men’s war, but there are many women and girls involved in the stories, and I wanted to write about them. Hence my Girls of Troy series, beautifully published by Silver Wood Books of Bristol.

‘Thomas's style is to absorb us in the period and yet Electra still feels like someone we know and understand today’ Dawn Finch - Awfully Big Reviews
