A review by kahale
The Song of Troy by Colleen McCullough

4.0

the Trojan War has always fascinated me. This fictional account really brought all of the characters alive for me. It was especially good the way the author wrote each chapter from the point of view of the different characters and how they interrelated to each other such as Helen, Achilles, Odysseus and others. This would be a good companion book for students reading the Illiad to explain some of the Greek customs, war etiquette and the character interplay of the classic piece of literature.
