This might have ignited a new love for audiobooks. I now wish I had read the previous books in the series by their audio book as well.
A great retelling of Troy, that still feels unique and interesting, though that story has been told so many times, in so many ways. Stephen Fry makes each tangent sometimes more interesting than the main story itself, but I think it mainly worked because of his storytelling abilities in the audiobook
