Like I always do, I find it difficult to judge such an old book. This book was more adventure than the Iliad and definitely easier to read and easier to understand, I thought. Since it was a sequel, you are already familiar with the characters and the world is it was a little bit easier to jump right into the book.

a little long winded and repetitive at times but i mean what else can you expect from such an old book lol
the emily wilson translation slayed, highly recommend, she makes the whole thing actually interesting and enjoyable

This was surprisingly good! I was expecting it to be boring but I actually really enjoyed it.

I liked the translator’s essay, but at times the poem was a bit dull and hard to read because nothing interesting was happening while interesting bits were often cut short.
However, there were some parts I really enjoyed, which mostly made up for the slower bits
I’m still glad that I finally finished it tho.
