Gods and heroes never truly vanish - they return in stories that refuse to die. The Trojan War may be over, but the world it shattered is far from healed. In its wake, a new generation stands at the edge of destiny. In The Arrow of Apollo, Philip Womack invites young readers into a thrilling reimagining of classical myth, where the children of legendary figures must face trials every bit as daunting as their parents'.
