About this listen

The first volume of Gene Wolfe's powerful story of Latro, a Roman mercenary who received a head injury that deprived him of his short-term memory. In return it gave him the ability to converse with supernatural creatures, gods, and goddesses who invisibly inhabit the ancient landscape.

Like the title said, it can be slightly boring or there can be times that you don't know where the story is heading and that's because there really isn't a proper story. I learned this is more about experiencing Ancient Greece through eyes of somebody who has to learn everything again basically like most readers of this book. so it is a clever device, but just not much happens.
