I enjoyed Ariadne also.. I tried to read two other books surrounding the Trojan war, one was a complete bust. House of Names by Colm Toibin and I can see why people enjoy that style of writing, but I need dialogue, inner thoughts etc and I think he talked about a hallway for a page and a half and I just closed the book. The next was about Iphigenia and her sisters, this could have been a good book but I was just tired of the Trogan War! I was reading them one after another because as a greek mythology child I couldn't get enough, needed more, haha. Ariadne gave me that Greek Mythology hit but had nothing to do with thr Trojan War. Loved it.
