A review by maria_zoulia
Age of Bronze, Vol. 1: A Thousand Ships by Eric Shanower
5.0
Since ancient history and classical mythology are two of my favourite subjects, it was easy to engage to the story.
This is, as you probably have guessed, a retelling of the Iliad, but without the gods. It may feel blunt for some readers, but I didn't really mind it, since their presence was always there (like the dream that Paris and the vision Thetis had).
The facial expressions were nice, the character design distinctive (with the exception of women, seriously, I couldn't guess which one was who) and the story well-handled.
I will surely read the other volumes as well!
