Helen of Troy by Margaret George

4.0

This book lagged a bit in the middle - where Helen and Paris are in Troy, and everyone is waiting for the war to start. Also for the first few years of the war. Once Achilles dies, it picks up again. Props for writing Helen's story from her own perspective. It's nice to get a woman's view of things, instead of the man's view we usually get. There is some really beautiful and profound writing too, especially near the end.
