fun dynamics, the sheer span of time the covers was handled well and though not my favourite version of clytemnestra and agamemnon's relationship but the complexities were handled in an interesting way.

Audiobook
I recently read The Daughters of Sparta and it’s interesting to compare to this book. I liked that this one stuck to Clytemnestra’s POV and how it handled her daughter’s sacrifice.
