Done, I've finished my reading of everything by Aeschylus! I read Delphi's anthology containing all 7 existing plays (plus fragments) alongside my other editions for individual plays for comparison as well as for those plays I didn't have but in this edition.
The score for all plays goes like this:
Agamemnon = 3.5 stars.
The Libation Bearers = 4 stars.
Eumenides = 5 stars.
The Persians = 3 stars.
Seven Against Thebes = 4 stars.
The Suppliants = 3.5 stars.
Prometheus Bound = 5 stars.
I was most partial to the Orestiad and Prometheus Bound, and The Persians was my least favourite drama. Wish Prometheus Unbound had survived, for the few lines that exist showed it was going to be quite good.
