Fascinating to see Virgil's independence from Homer when it comes to describing the state of the dead. Virgil's Hades is much more dynamic and detailed. You can see him planting the seeds of Dante's imagination.

The Aeneid seems both faster paced and more musical than The Iliad or Odyssey. I'm enjoying those features.
