My earlier review, reposted here:
From the haunting tablets from Ugarit, these are the last words of the city: "The fleet is away. Black ships have been sighted ..."
I very much enjoyed Jo Graham's retelling of what happened to the people who survived the Trojan War. It's told from a woman's point of view, which makes it unusual and interesting. But it also makes me wonder if the characterizations are too modern. Maybe someone here will have an opinion.
