The Moon Riders dramatically replays the siege of Troy from the Achaeans, but with the inclusion of the little known 'Amazons' (referred to here as Moon Riders). It is very historically accurate, and this adds to the reality of the read. The story follows Myrina - a Moon Rider Priestess - at her initiation in the Moon-riders. Then she and her fellows become embroiled in the bitter battle for Troy. Although they have no real links with the Trojans, they have other disputes to settle with the Acheaens, such as the pillaging of their villages and slaughtering of their people. As you can imagine, the book has lots of fighting.
