“The Fall of the Phoenix” penned by the author Daniel Kelly is a retelling of the tale of the fall of Troy. The story began with the duel between Hector and Achilles who trained together, grew to men as brothers and fought together. Hector and Achilles both are powerful and being face-to-face in the final battle means only one will survive. Can Hector beat Achilles and save Troy from Greece?

Written in 274 pages, this story is full of action. This classical story about the fall of Troy is well described by the author. I haven’t heard about this story before so it’s an insightful read to me. Both Hector and Achilles are amazing, making it difficult to pick one. The story is detailed. Since I have read the story about the fall of Troy for the first time, I had to re-read a few pages but it’s totally worth it. Language used in the book has good vocabulary so one would come across many new words.
