Heroic King Odysseus can finally return to Ithaca, but the voyage home holds terrors far greater than any he faced during the Trojan War. Storms have thrust Odysseus's ship into unknown waters. Here he must confront not only the blunders of his crew, but far stranger perils: the one-eyed, flesh-eating Cyclops; Circe, the enchantress with the power to turn men into swine; the unnerving trip through the Land of the Dead. And when he finally reaches home, he finds his palace overrun by loutish suitors fighting to win the affections of his adored wife Penelope. Odysseus has one last thrilling battle to fight before he can reclaim his wife and his kingdom. Rosemary Sutcliff's vivid transformation brings Homer's Odyssey to life for a new generation. While simplified, the story is never "dumbed down," making it an excellent introduction to Greek mythology for readers of all ages. 2126118 1996 The Wanderings of Odysseus: The Story of the Odyssey total:87|5:19|4:27|3:24|2:15|1:2| 87 307 121 40 3 0 false false Sat Jan 24 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 28 10:31:02 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 28 10:32:49 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Tue Jan 13 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 13 14:38:48 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 13 20:01:34 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Tue Feb 03 23:05:20 -0800 2009 Tue Jan 20 20:35:36 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 03 23:05:21 -0800 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Tue Apr 21 10:04:07 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 21 10:05:28 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jan 21 19:20:42 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 21 19:20:42 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Aug 09 15:34:40 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 09 16:54:18 -0700 2009
