A bit slow at times but overall a great retelling of a common myth. I loved all the perspectives and individual stories.

i loved it, the characters were so well described, so well layered and you have time to fall in love with every one of them. finishing the book was painful because i didn't want to leave andromache and i desperately wanted more of penthesilea !!!

i also hate men a little more now but what is new ?

Not for me, found it frustrating and the topic was kind of boring.
