In the time of Achilles

Author's Note

I will try to make this somewhat historically accurate, just because what is the point of writing a book if it is going to not follow that time period? However, this is a story that for the stories sake, is going to be more modern in places. I hope you enjoy this book.

Have read the first five chapters of this tale so far. It's obvious you are quite taken and intrigued by the ancient Greek culture. If there are any inaccuracies, they are far from noticeable - they certainly did not ruin the story for me.
I hope you continue this story further - it will be interesting to see how it develops. I will read the last few chapters soon.

Thank you so much for reading and reviewing! I am so glad you like it! Yes, I am very much in love w.. read moreThank you so much for reading and reviewing! I am so glad you like it! Yes, I am very much in love with anything Ancient Greece and so it is nice to hear that, that love has found its way into my story - that was exactly what I was trying to do to make it more enjoyable for readers. I will be continuing this story until after the Trojan war so I still have quite a few chapters to go. Thanks again for reading and reviewing, I can't tell you how happy it makes me when I receive a lovely comment like this!
