The Odyssey

This work allows readers to follow Odysseus as he traverses the dangerous seas of ancient Greece, in an epic attempt to get home after the Trojan War. Hindered by gods, hampered by goddesses! Who among his crew will live to tell the tale? Original full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this classic tale. A running glossary at the foot of each page helps readers with any challenging vocabulary without disrupting the reading experience. This work includes information about the author, the historical background to the period in which the author lived and a timeline of world events that places the work in its historical context.
