What a journey this book was. I've not read any classic literature, and my Greek mythology knowledge was kinda vague so I didn't know a whole lot of what to expect going in to this.

But the prose is beautiful and evocative, and the emotions come through the page and hit you right in the chest. Especially in the last 20% or so.
