Graphic Novel | Childrens
A bold re-envisioning of The Odyssey, told with
simplicity and style — perfect for fans of graphic
retellings and mythology enthusiasts alike. Odysseus faces storm and shipwreck, a terrifying man-eating
Cyclops, the alluring but deadly Sirens, and the fury of the
sea-god Poseidon as he makes his ten-year journey home from
the Trojan War. While Odysseus struggles to make it home,
his wife, Penelope, fights a different kind of battle as her
palace is invaded by forceful, greedy men who tell her that
Odysseus is dead and she must choose a new husband. Will
Odysseus reach her in time? Homer’s epic, age-old story is
powerfully told by Carnegie Medalist Gillian Cross and
stunningly illustrated by rising talent Neil Packer.
