Where do I even begin???

I’m in awe at how beautifully written this tale was and I highly, highly recommend reading this if you enjoyed reading anything related to Greek mythology - but most specifically for fans of The Illiad. This was very Homer-esque with a novel spin and a beautifully crafted love story that will have your heart aching upon finishing the last page.

Easy 5 stars for me.
