Helen of Troy is in mourning for her dead husband, Paris. Killed in
single combat with the merciless Apollo, his body is nothing but a
scorched and blasted thing. Hockenberry, her lover, still sneaks
from her bed after their nights of lovemaking. And the gods still
strike out from the besieged Olympos, their single-molecule bomb
casings quantum phase-shifting through the moravecs' force shield
and laying waste to Ilium. Or so Hockenberry and the amusing little
metal creature, Mahnmut, have tried to explain to her. Helen of
Troy does not give a fig about machines. She must dress for the
funeral. And man and the gods and the unknown players in this
tragedy must prepare for the final act. And a battle that will
decide the future of the universe itself.
