I am so mad people have been flooding this book with one star reviews, often not even having read the book, solely because the author did not read the odyssey, which is not nearly as abhorrent as you all thinking it's an easy read one casually enjoys. It's a tough read most people struggle through and do not finish. You can still do research beyond reading the source material of which you're adapting one tiny aspect.

That being said: it's a young adult fictional story inspired by this tiny part of the odyssey, so no it's not a retelling neither is it cultural appropriation as 'shocker' Greece has changed quite a bit since 600 BC. It's not even the same language they speak anymore. So stick your bullshit crappy stuck up attitude somewhere it doesn't harm debuting authors. *Soetkin out*
