Greek gods meddling in human affairs causes Trojan War figures Achilles and Paris to travel through time to 1795 where their story intersects with that of another Helen. The spunky girl's lively narration includes irreverent footnotes that get a bit tedious. Although it's a second book in a trilogy, this lighthearted fantasy stands on its own.
