I'm now giving the Illiad a go. I thought I'd break out of my science fiction/fantasy shell temporarily, just for a change of pace. It's been torturous so far, through the first two books, but I'd imagine having to sit through the Catalogue of Ships was a major part of that for me. Hopefully I'll gradually get into it.
