Summary
A brilliant introduction to Greek mythology follows King Odysseus, who, after the siege of Troy, embarks on a perilous journey back to Ithaca, encountering the one-eyed Cyclops, the enchantress Circe, and the Land of the Dead, and, upon his return, must fight for his wife and kingdom.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
The long siege is ended. Troy lies in ashes. The black ships of the Greek war-host set sail for home but for King Odysseus of Ithaca, the return voyage holds hazards far greater than any he faced in the TrojanWar.
For this dramatic sequel to Black Ships Before Troy, Rosemary Sutcliff has transformed Homer’s magnificent but complex epic poem The Odyssey into an enthralling travellers tale, with a spectacular cast of men, magicians and monsters. Alan Lee evokes a golden age of mythical Greece in his portrayal of the greatest voyage of all time.
