Title: Some good memorable scenes...besides that it falls apart.
Review: Ilium was a great fun read and I was excited to find out how all these very interesting plot lines would converge and conclude...They don't.I was really looking forward to the transformed Daemon to battle Caliban in a mano-a-mano battle to the death. Even prepared for a Daemon to die in the battle if it was a good scene...never happens.I wanted to understand WTH was up with the whole Trojan war thing (the central premise of the book)...I never found out.And Setabos, Caliban, Sycorax, Prospero, Ariel...all of them are alive?not-dead but wtih no resolution.There are a couple of good scenes, Daemon stealing an egg from Setabos, that was good. Daemon and Ada and all them charging into battle towards certain death. and...well, maybe that was it.At least I didn't _read_ much of the lenghty prose but skimmed the last half of the book. :)
