Title: The Last of the Wine is the Last Renault I'll read!
Review: The book takes place in Ancient Greece. There is a map and a glossary of Greek terms, but referring to that grows old pretty quickly! If you have studied Ancient Greece and are familiar with Greek terms, you might find the setting more appealing than I did. The characters are predominately male (all but one) and go about their day wrestling, hunting and fighting wars. Their names run from familiar to difficult to pronounce. The author spends an inordinate amount of time with descriptions of irrelevant events. She uses run on sentences and nonsensical similes. This book put me to sleep if I tried to read it late in the day. If you choose to read it, I advise reading in the morning!
