" Clever idea: retell the story of Troy from the perspective of a much more minor character than the usual lot. Execution good but not great; felt like a standard action novel. Probably a 5 without the clever historical fiction angle. "

" The Hittite by Ben Bova (Forge 2010)(fiction - historical): This is an overwrought historical drama starring some of Homer's characters (Odysseus, Achilles, Helen, Agamemnon). My interest ran out long before the book did. DNF. My rating: 3.0, finished 1/11/12. "
