The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel

Bought it as a gift for my boyfriend. He loved it! The thickness and smoothness of the paper, the colour of the illustrations—simply beautiful!

A must read ilustration book

If you read Iliad then you must read this. The facial expression of Odysseus' wife was so real that you surely will feel for her. Though it will be better if Hinds depicts more about the Trojan horse. The sea, the islands, the struggle will make you fell like an adventure. Like the Iliad the bloodbath feels like so real that it never felt like I am reading a book. All but only Odysseus survived the journey. Even after the journey he had to undergo a lots of troubles to get rid of the suitors. We always say that in western culture when the husband leaves the wife always remarries. But this story proves it wrong. That's why I said you'll feel the pain of Penolpe after reading this. Thanks Garath, for such a wonderful work.

Good read with Amazing art work.

Well illustrated. To the point. Good for kids. I enjoyed it. Kids still haven't finished it. Considering other similar books

The book is not appropriate for children.

I bought this for myself years ago and loved it. Faithfull to the original, and such a tremendous work! Imagine over 200 pages of thoroughly illustrated images, well researched, several per page! You can see the love for the originialI introduced it to my 6 year old son half a year ago, and he reads in it every day. I have read it out loud for him 2 times all the way through. His favourite book of all books is the Illiad by Garerth Hinds (which I have read for him every day for months now at his request, some passages he just cannot get enough of). It also made me pick up the original Homer again, appreciating it in a new way

Es de excelente material, y las imagenes son muy claras y el texto muy legible.

One of my favourite stories illustrated in a graphic novel format. The art is exceptional and the story speaks again in a way I never expected.

Excellent

I was shocked after I flipped a few pages. There are many naked pictures and pornography. Definitely not appropriate for young kids or youth. Need to return immediately.
