Title: A clumsy retelling of a gloriously epic tale
Review: A clumsy and incomplete retelling of an otherwise gloriously epic classic tale. George cannot decide what types of personalities her characters have -- is Paris vain and immature, clinging onto Helen, or is he strong and manly? Has only a few years elapsed since Helen left Sparta or was it 20? Is Helen committed to Paris and her new course or is she torn? Very difficult to build relationships or understand any of the characters -- none are endearing, even though one may be tempted to feel sorrow for the fate of Andromache and her young son at the end. Poorly written. George does not do her subject matter justice in this case.
