A Greek myth retold. Surrounding the Trojan war. It is a Greek tragedy! Comes with the usual Greek tragedy warnings.sarabook's review

Well written thats fo sure
Brutal, bloody ,and pulled on my heart strings at times :''''( , the whole thing is pretty dark and twisted and spiteful, vengeance and all the things that make up stories from the Greeks
Definitely darker than Circe or song of Achilles. But also deffo pulled some of the different myths I had read about together, like w helen /Troy and Achilles and stuff.
I had to Google what happened to her after the end of the book, oosh, makes me want to read Electra.
It was deffo one of the better/bestest retellings I've read of greek myths.
Layered complicated personal and very human characters . We really understand clythemnestra and why she did what she did...
I'm glad there were some strands that were not full of hate though.
