I liked it. It's actually a decent plot driven book, unlike some of the other books I was forced to read at your age.

My rule is: if the Simpsons have spoofed it, it's gotta be good!

A: its not a book its a poem thats extremely long so it looks like a book
 B: really nice story after you get into it and start understanding what its talking about. I think its in a big triad of Epics about the trojan war. one is the Aenid then there's the Oddessy and i think there was a third one forgot the name its the story of Oddeseus and how he has to conquer many hardships set before him after the trojan war i think.
