I really liked the concept of this book. Giving the power back to the women of the Trojan War. This book was good. I kind of wish we had the pov of Helen but I absolutely love Briseis and her story was different because we usually get perspectives of the Greeks and how they fought the war and it’s a one sided war but this book gave the Trojans names and opinions and stories which was great
