Combining the stories from The Iliad and The Odyssey, this book tells the tale of Odysseus from his participation in the Trojan War to his long and arduous journey home. This volume has been adapted for younger children into a simplified continuous narrative.

Overview

Travel back to a mythical time when Achilles, aided by the gods, waged war against the Trojans. And join Odysseus on his journey through murkey waters, facing obstacles like the terrifying Scylla and whirring Charybdis, the beautiful enchantress Circe, and the land of the raging Cyclopes.

Using narrative threads from The Iliad and The Odyssey, Padraic Colum weaves a stunning adventure with all the drama and power that Homer intended.
