zwagrowska's review against another edition

Best piece of fanfiction I ever did read.
In all seriousness, this sucked me in. I virtually couldn't put it down, which puts serious risk to my collections next week...
The epistolary form was so well executed by Williams, although I certainly was not surprised by his skill. I can admire how much dedication it must have taken to research the book's source material, given the letters are spread across so many characters. Boy did I enjoy this.
Julia's exile was so bittersweet. I loved the exploration of Octavius' compassion in ultimately banishing her... although I was taken by surprise in Ovid's lack of involvement, even though it was teased at some point.

What happens when you write a fascistic hagiography that also finds time to be misogynistic but your prose is good
