Actually I did that. I read the entire Troy Drama to the end and then went back and reread, I have like 20 pages to go or some such.
It really brought the plains of Ilium to life I thought, althought it really helps to have a working knowledge of the Iliad, the Odyssey, and Shakespeare.

I'm really surprised but I cannot put this book down! It's great! It's taking me a while to get through it though. I think I'm on page 175ish. I usually read much faster, but this book is big! I find myself wanting to skip over the storyline w/ Mahnmut and just focus on the chapters w/ Hockenberry and the Troy stuff.
I think we should start discussing it. I know I was confused about some of the objects the author made up...but they're all starting to all fall into place. I think some early discussion might help clear up some confusion down the road.
