This book was a slow start but once it got Achilles introduced I was captivated. And it just kept getting better and playing out every scene in my head while reading brought them to life. This was very well written and the characters were so interesting. Even after Protroclus died, he still narrated and the ending with Thetis brought me to tears. 
I finished this in a short period of time because I am a fast reader that frequently reads. But I considered this a slow read because of how long it felt. Each page you had to pay attention and digest. The language was something you also had to adjust to. In all this was a medium read.

Bon, j'écrit ce review trois semaine après avoir fini ce livre car sur l'instant même que je l'ai fini je ne savais pas ce que j'en trouvais. Je suis encore toujours mitigé sur le faite si j'ai aimé ce livre. Vue que on me l'avait vendu comme le meilleur livre que je lirai de l'année et que partout sur Instagram tout le monde disais que ce livre est un "Chef-d'œuvre" j'en suis maintenant déçu car je ne l'ai pas apprécié de cette manier. Oui c'est un bon livre mais j'en attendais plus. Tout de même je lui donne 3.75 étoiles. Car en sois c'est une bonne histoire. J'ai belle et bien ressenti des émotion en lisant ce livre mais je m'attendais à tellement mieux que j'en suis tout simplement déçu.
