I really wanted to love this and maybe I would’ve if I hadn’t just finished CC’s Clymenestra. There were alot of characters and I understand they’re important but I think I would’ve enjoyed it more if there was more plot and more intense focus on Andromache, Penelope, Cassandra and Oenene. I did appreciate iphogenia’s chapter, though hard to stomach.
