She Steers the Fates

by Drew Rivetty

Her name means “fighter of men,” but after Greek raiders destroy her village, Andromache is left with little desire to fight for anything.

Seeking refuge in Troy, she is promised to a royal prince, but grief, anger, and the scars of her past make her an outsider in a city that expects her gratitude and obedience. Only Horn Blower, a wild and untamable horse with a terrifying cry and a spirit as wounded as her own, recognizes the strength she has forgotten.

As Andromache and Horn Blower forge an unbreakable bond, she begins to find her place within the legendary city of Troy. But the gods have already written Troy’s fate. The war is coming. The horse will enter the gates. The city will burn.

Unless one woman dares to challenge destiny itself.

She Steers the Fates reimagines the fall of Troy through the eyes of the woman who refused to let history be written in ashes.
