The Iliad

I liked it a lot! I found the characters to be great and interesting. I loved the relationship of the gods between each other and also how they intervened in human affairs. I wasn't huge on the massive battle sequences and felt that they could drag on for too long. I did like when they did the 1v1 battles with dialogue interspersed. This book also taught me about writing techniques I never thought of such as giving multiple names for the same character or referring to a character in different ways. Overall, I am very happy I read this and I plan to read more classical literature!
