The paperback of Walker's magnificent edition of Homer's epic
story, illustrated with lavish full colour pictures and exquisite
black and white silhouettes. Homer's great story is retold with
simplicity and style by award-winning children's writer Gillian
Cross, and vividly brought to life in Neil Packer's stunning
illustrations. It charts the ten year epic voyage of Odysseus as he
returns from the Trojan War to the island of Ithaca. On his journey
he encounters all manner of perils, from the man-eating Cyclops and
the evil sorceress Circe, to the deadly lure of the Sirens and the
wrath of the sea-god Poseidon. Neil Packer's striking imagination,
and his extraordinary use of colour and dramatic silhouettes,
capture the terrors of Odysseus's travels as well as the dangers
faced by his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus at home. The
illustrations are a perfect complement to Gillian Cross's beguiling
narrative, which transports the reader effortlessly into Homer's
world.
