Troy: The Siege of Troy Retold

Album by Stephen Fry

Troy: The Siege of Troy Retold is an audiobook by Stephen Fry, released in 2020. The recording is a spoken-word version of the Trojan War myth with clear, conversational narration, measured pacing and a dry comic tone, and it follows Fry's earlier myth retellings within his later non-fiction work.
