Overview
An action-packed retelling of Homer’s The Odyssey in an edgy, deluxe hardcover featuring metallic foil effects and embossing on the jacket! Read it ahead of Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film, coming July 2026.
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.
Brilliantly retold by award-winning author Geraldine McCaughrean, this accessible adaptation brings Homer’s timeless tale to life with clear, engaging language and fast-paced storytelling in a shorter page count.
