GODDESS OF YESTERDAY

Caroline B. Cooney, . . Dell/Laurel-Leaf, $5.99 (263pp) ISBN 978-0-440-22930-8

At the prelude to the Trojan War, the cherished daughter of the chief of a tiny island is taken hostage. Later she plays a small but crucial role in the first few days of the epic war and makes peace with her stolen identity. In a starred review, PW said, "Cooney's trademark staccato narrative style gives the proceedings a breathless urgency." Ages 12-up. (Nov.)
