I was shocked by how accurate the characters' interactions with each other were. It seems crazy to me that this author isn't Greek, and compiled all this information from simply research. Incredible. The translator obviously helped, but there is no way to translate something into a better story than it is, at least not to this degree. It did feel slightly "and they have a strange magical love in that magical country" at the end but I'll forgive it cause the story is that good
