If you haven't already, everybody should read Wrath Goddess Sing by Maya Deane. It is a retelling of the Iliad from the point of view of Achilles as a trans woman. It is a brutal but beautiful story and I needed to share it with all of you. a.co/d/ayj4ICc - ThreadSky

OMFG YES. this is my one of my fucking favorite books ever.

I just finished it the other night, and it was so amazing. I also just started to work with Athena, and the book made me feel so connected to her. I need to read the Iliad and Odyssey again. Have you listened to to Epic the Musical?

I don't know that I could enjoy the regular Illiad after that. XD And I think it'd be fun to get a similar treatment for the Odyssey.

I have not, I didn't know it was in a complete enough state to listen to but now I wanna. :3

the regular Iliad? is that that one WGS fanfic that Homer wrote a while back? 😝

One last saga remaining. But it ends so well right now. And the one that sings for Athena has such a beautiful voice. I only wish Helen had not used her magics to make everyone forget Achilleas and the Kallai
