    Summary

    Eva Stratt does not believe in ghosts or the supernatural or things she cannot perceive with her senses, but she is not dealing with a reality that she knows right now. So she feels slightly better for her choice to back away—like she’s heeding some invisible, cosmic warning.

    She glances down the unending yellow corridor again, far into the shadows.
     

    Something moves.

     

    Eva Stratt stumbles into the Backrooms, where she can't escape her own choices.

    Summary

    An Epic Poem, written entirely in the iambic pentameter, telling the story of the events that precipitated the Trojan War. From Paris' birth to the landing of the Greek ships at Troy (mirroring the events and narrative of the lost Cyclic Epic of the Cypria by Stasinus).
    This is the first in what will hopefully be a series of Epics that reconstruct the lost poems of the Epic Cycle, and will therefore be able to be read as companion pieces to the two Epics of Homer.

    This story tells an ancient pre-war story which appeals to the modern audience, over whom global war seems to be looming once again.
    Here are the names of the 12 books of this Epic, 'Dreams of Fire' (also confusingly the name of the first book):

    Book I: Dreams of Fire
    Book II: Prince of Nothing
    Book III: The Catalogue of Suitors
    Book IV: Song of Thebes
    Book V: Oath, Alliance, and Games
    Book VI: The End of Heroes
    Book VII: Discord and Judgement
    Book VIII: Trojan Expedition
    Book IX: Calling in Favours
    Book X: War in Thessaly
    Book XI: Ships and Sacrifice
    Book XII: Barricades

    Summary

    The joke dies on my lips. Carl is alone.

    “What’s going on?” I manage, the words sounding small and lame in the wake of the quip they’d been so rudely shoved into place of. Carl shakes his head.

    “We’re going into lockdown, Dr. Grace. Eva Stratt is not aboard the ship.”
