Sent Warrior's first hundred-page section - Part One, Salamina - to my esteemed editor just for his overall impression and commentary. Conclusion: he hates the opening: "Way too dark. ... vignette is too horrific and
also too revolting to use—ever, probably—regardless of how accurate it is. But
it can be toned down, made less graphic, and could then work."
He hasn't blinked before when characters did their worst: barely turned a hair for the no-blinking-allowed scene of Akhaïdes and Philaios alone. But dogs doing what dogs do made him wince. This process is going to be even more interesting than I thought it might.
