Critics Review
McCullough has written a beginner’s guide to Homer, cutting away every last trace of poetry to expose the narrative below… She has done us all a service, reminding those familiar with the classics of the wonder of one of the greatest stories ever told. Each character’s personal history is a fascinating story in itself and she retells it as if she were telling a fairy story to a child. - Guardian.
There is much more to Colleen McCullough than The Thorn Birds… There are exciting moments, pacy moments, sexy and romantic moments. - Sunday Times.About The Author
