In a blend of history, Greek mythology, and creativity Gregory Nixon continues the saga of Diomedes with book #2, Diomedes in Kyprios (Doknyx Publications $19.95). The title refers to the first in the series with clarity through anecdotal flashbacks as it focuses on the later life of Diomedes. The story takes place after the Fall of Troy and the Hittite Empire during the collapse of the Bronze Age. Although the story is fiction, it contains many relatable aspects to the chaos in today’s world with love triangles, battles of conquest, control of wealth and climate change. Nixon, a retired professor from UNBC now writes from his home in Vernon. 9781778297755
