A new story for a new theme - in the final section of our EPIC Compendium, we're showcasing stories of war, inspired by the Open category theme 'Troy'. We begin with an epistolary story from Ellie Field, narrated by Professor Douglas Cairns, Chair of the Classical Association Council and a Fellow of the British Academy. Can you spot the tribute to Stephen Fry in Ellie's story?  EPIC: Modern Writers, Ancient Stories is a compilation of short stories written by entrants in the 2022 Classical Association Creative Writing Competition, inspired by Stephen Fry's trilogy Mythos, Heroes and Troy. Over six weeks, we have been releasing a brand-new story influenced by the ancient world every day, read by a different narrator - make sure you hit 'follow' or 'subscribe' to ensure you don't miss a single story. The full e-book will be released later this year.
