AN EPIC BATTLE THAT LASTED TEN YEARS. A LEGENDARY STORY THAT HAS SURVIVED THOUSANDS.

'Troy. The most marvellous kingdom in all the world. The Jewel of the Aegean. Glittering Ilion, the city that rose and fell not once but twice . . .'

When Helen, the beautiful Greek queen, is kidnapped by the Trojan prince Paris, the most legendary war of all time begins.

Watch in awe as a thousand ships are launched against the great city of Troy.

Feel the fury of the battleground as the Trojans stand resolutely against Greek might for an entire decade.

And witness the epic climax - the wooden horse, delivered to the city of Troy in a masterclass of deception by the Greeks . . .

In Stephen Fry's exceptional retelling of our greatest story, TROY will transport you to the depths of ancient Greece and beyond.

Love the plot and narration (I own Mythos and Heroes too), but there seems to be a marked difference in the chaptering style. For instance, there are two large chunks of audio (both four hours long) that comprise the main narrative. There's definitely inter-chapter transitions as Fry moves between the different strands of narratives, but without a clear divvying of them within the navigation itself, it becomes slightly difficult to pause and keep track, or even just to relisten to certain chapters. A lot of guesswork is required, which cuts into the enjoyment a little. Could there be main headings and well as subchapters?

More division of chapters needed

Although you don’t need to, please start with Mythos and Heroes. I’m hoping he does another tour post COVID, talking about the Greek gods and their enthralling stories. Could not recommend more highly. Enjoy!

Fry as usual. Engaging, enigmatic and charismatic.

I loved this from start to finish, Fry paints a vivid picture of the places and personalities in the story. He adds character and nuance with his vocal impressions to convey the personalities of the character, he even does good impressions of the women, and is portrayal of Odysseus is masterful.

Genuinely quite special.

Outstanding retelling of the myth of Troy

Stephen fry is very entertaining and this acts to serve as an excellent introduction to the Iliad.
Now that the production has been split into chapters following the book- and even including chapter headings! - makes navigation easy, especially in one where there is a lot of information to follow.

Update makes vast improvement

A great interpretation and retelling of Homers Iliad. Beautifully read and informative. I strongly recommend it.
