He died pushing a child out of the path of a speeding car. He woke up in the body of a sixteen-year-old boy inside the walls of Troy -- seven years before the war that would destroy the city begins. The Third Son of Troy is an insignificant prince, a footnote in history that Homer never bothered to mention. But the transmigrator who inhabits the Third Son's body knows what is coming. The wooden horse, the betrayal, the fall of Troy -- all of it is written in a future he intends to prevent. Armed with knowledge of Greek mythology and modern military strategy, the Third Son begins to prepare Troy for a war that its leaders refuse to believe is coming. As the Third Son's preparations attract attention from gods, heroes, and the very forces of fate that wrote Troy's destruction, he discovers that changing history is not just difficult -- it is dangerous. The gods who authored Troy's fall do not appreciate edits to their narrative, and the heir of Troy who tries to save his city must fight not just Greeks but destiny itself.
