The End Crowns All is a young adult novel about the trojan war with a little twist to it.
I love Greek mythology and especially all stories and characters around the trojan war. I only heard great things about Fitzgerald's writing so I was very eager to start this book.
I was invested from the first page and I simply couldn't stop reading. All the well known characters of the trojan war were there, like Cassandra, Apollo, Helen, Paris and Hector just to name a few but the course of the story was what kept me reading. This is not a retelling, the author took the ancient greek and well known story and just created something new, unique and absolutely beautiful.
I love her writing, I love the choices she made with the story and characters and it was so refreshing to see a new version of the story. I also loved that even the characters in the book gave a hint on the changes which were made.
If you love Greek mythology please pick this one up! I definitely want to read Girl, Goddess, Queen very soon and I'm sure I will also give the author's thriller a go. I had an absolute blast with this book and it hit all the marks for me.
Thank you to the Tandem Collective for the gifted copy.
