Adaptation of: Aeneis / Virgil. A retelling of Virgil's epic poem in which the Trojan hero Aeneas wanders over land and sea after the destruction of his beloved Troy, eventually fulfilling the prophecy that he would lead his people to a new land and found an empire.
The story of the Aeneas and the founding of Rome has excitement and adventure, romance and magic, humour and sadness. Emily Frenkel's retelling is fresh and direct. Simon Weller's illustrations are fabulous.
