I reviewed this book when I initially read it a few years ago. Below is my original review! 
 I thought this book was really good. I picked it up, because I was looking through book on Amazon, and it was in when I went to the library. I love reading about Ancient Greece, or Italy, and mythology. I had read a book of mythology recently, but forgot this story. I was genuinely immersed in the book, I found it a page-turner and very very good. I thought the detail was amazing, and when it finally occurred to me that I knew how it ended, I tried to convince myself that it wasn't THAT story. I totally cried. 
 My only problem was the very end. It was kind of confusing. I mean, yeah, I can piece it together, but like... George told the story in so much detail, that to leave it hanging and vague like that was kind of eh. Not appreciated! 
 I suggest it though. It was a long read, but definitely a good one!
