It's a fine book, but overtly dramatic and I'm not buying Aeneas' godly piety and divine purpose.

Also Dido deserved a bigger role, instead of being delegated to "bitch who kills herself in hysterics because she cant get the D".

Honestly I only read it because it provided a closure of sorts to the Illiad (even though it's a rather illegitimare closure), but then I read the posthomerics, so...

Aeneas was pretty much a Mary Sue

Also copying the Illad and Odyssey this much should be a crime

This is what happens when you don't read a poem in it's original language.

Honestly, i don't even know why you people even bother. You're losing everything that makes the work good.
