I chose this book because.....

I chose Black Ships Before Troy because the summary on the back was a very interesting summary. It sounds like i will be interested in it. I have heard about the city named Troy before. I think I will be interested in the ancient world of Olympus. I like the character named Achilles. His mom dipped in immortal water when he was young. It covered everything except his heel.
