The Concept: Age of Bronze retells the story of the Trojan War for a modern audience.  The time-honored characters spring into new life with recognizable hopes and desires. The classic tale unfolds afresh before your eyes, fully dramatized against a background rich with authenticity. All the familiar people and events are here-the beautiful Helen-the wily Odysseus-the noble Achilles-the deadly Trojan Horse.
This Issue: Sacrifice, part eight-What do you do when god tells you to kill your child?  High King Agamemnon has a dreadful choice to ma ke-either sacrifice his daughter's life and take the army to Troy, or spare her and betray his allies. At last, the episode of the Trojan War that readers have been asking for-the Sacrifice of Iphigenia.
