particular scene‚ the most interesting to me was when Theron and his pirates broke into the tomb where Callirhoe was. The entire scene to me was funnier (although I prefer more funny rather than the comparative adjective‚ funnier) than any of the other content within this book. I enjoyed the line‚ “’Some pirate you are-afraid even of a woman’ –Theron”‚ following the discovery of Callirhoe in the tomb and his exchange between his pirates and himself.
