While definitely not as good as Adele Geras' phenomenal <i>Troy<i>, this is a pretty good book 115 pages in. It's definitely a quick read! The author takes a whole "grrrl power" approach to the story, and while I'm not sure how accurate it is, I think it works for this particular book. Ironically enough, it's better than <i>Alanna: The First Adventure<i> by Tamora Pierce, whose blurb is on the back!
