okax, but didn't wow me. some parts worked really well, others were a little clumsily paced or character motivations didn't make sense to me. also felt very modern and only with a basic understanding of Greek mythology to me. a little too much "tell", not enough "show" for my taste, and I saw plot reveals coming a mile away. also could have been shorter. but strong ending, and the love triangle could have been worse (although
I was hoping for a throuple).
