The Odyssey - A Modern Retelling

Voyages across the sea, man-eating monsters, witches, gods, and goddesses: The Odyssey is the ultimate adventure story.

Take a journey across the sea and follow the heroic, catastrophic, and sometimes downright gruesome tales of the Greek king Odysseus in this modern retelling of Homer's The Odyssey. A story of trickery, lies, and perseverance, watch as Odysseus is tested to the limits by the Cyclops, sirens, and lots of meddling, angry gods.

Written by self-proclaimed Greek myth nerd, and host of the Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! podcast, Liv Albert brings this ancient Greek Epic to life. Liv's version of The Odyssey portrays Odysseus as he really was: a complex man who did many great things... and just as many bad. Littered with historical facts, maps, and family trees, Liv brings all of her knowledge and expertise to this future classic, making it the only version of The Odyssey that you'll ever want to read.
