Brb doing it now

If you set your EPIC playlist in homeric order:

1-4 of the Wisdom Saga

Horse and Infant - Thunderbringer

God Games

Guys, it does things.

It emphasizes the Problem and not the Man, creates new tensions and makes every crack in Odysseus's sanity since the Infant, feel heavier. It introduces the videogame vibes earlier and also how Athena's time stopping works.

On the con side, it's a little less thrilling when everything is a flashback.

Yes I'm aware I'm saying something very obvious, changing the order in a narrative changes the narrative. But, what a fun exercise. 10/10 will do again.
