The epic journey of Odysseus, the hero of Ancient Greece...

After ten years of war, Odysseus turns his back on Troy and sets sail for home. But his voyage takes another ten years and he must face many dangers - Polyphemus the greedy one-eyed giant, Scylla the six-headed sea monster and even the wrath of the gods themselves - before he is reunited with his wife and son.

“But there was no escape. An hour later the room fell silent. Every suitor lay dead.”

Now that’s what I call a homecoming! Father and son clearing house!

A good story, and more depth than the graphic novel version I had read. Odysseus sure is one tough son-of-a-gun, though his mouth could use a little work! Now I've gotta work up to the "real" version! ( )

Out of the four books I previewed to read-aloud to my children, this edition was the best. ( )
