- Loved this so much! Lost my mind over Achilles and Patroclus but who's surprised.
- Themes of grief, anger and love were so interesting to me. In general I enjoyed how these universal emotions/experiences were explored in a way that is so applicable even now 3000 years later, and how they were addressed through specifics of the characters but also on a level that felt larger than the characters themselves.
- Taking off 0.5 just because it was a bit of a slog getting through the list of ships and some of the battle combat descriptions, but they were important in building up context for the heavy emotional points at the end.

it's very bloody and unforgiving, nobody is spared the suffering, but it's written in a way that distances you because it is so matter of fact about these things, a "this is how things are, no point dwelling on them unnecessarily" attitude.mkordziel's review against another edition
