Daughter of Odysseus: Ithaka Calling

The story of Christine as she embarks on a journey of the self is a good read. Though it started slowly for me, it was exciting after a point. The author built up anticipation of something momentous happening very well. Unfortunately nothing really happened. Thats when I realised its actually a trilogy. I suspect the real action starts in the sequel.
There is quite a clear depiction of the cultures where Christine is at - in both Australia and Greece. I also like the portrayals of the family interactions, the jealousies and the relationships. It is a good read. And I am waiting for the next part now.
Thanks to Booktasters who gave me the opportunity to discover a new author.
