The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel: A Modern Visual Adaptation of Homer's Epic Tale of Greek Mythology for Young Adults reinterprets the ancient classic as it has never been told before. With bold imagery and an ear tuned to the music of Homer's epic poem, author-illustrator Gareth Hinds brings the Odyssey to life in a masterful blend of art and storytelling.
Key topics include Odysseus, King of Ithaca, fresh from his triumphs in the Trojan War, who wants nothing more than to return home to his family. Instead, he offends the sea god Poseidon, who dooms him to years of shipwreck and wandering. Battling man-eating monsters, violent storms, and the supernatural seductions of sirens and sorceresses, Odysseus needs all his strength and cunning, and a little help from Mount Olympus, to make his way home and reclaim his kingdom.
A New York Times bestseller, this graphic novel adaptation is praised for its vivid, exciting visual storytelling and its faithfulness to the spirit of Homer's original poem. Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series, has called Hinds's reinterpretation a worthy new take on Homer's epic.
This edition is an excellent entry point for young adult readers, reluctant readers, and visual learners encountering Greek mythology for the first time, as well as a compelling addition to any classroom or library collection studying the Odyssey through a fresh, highly visual lens.
