Description: The Odyssey, A Graphic Novel based on Homer's epic poem, illustrated by Gareth Hinds, is a 249 page, 6 3/4 X 10 1/2 inch softcover book published by Candlewick Press, Massachusetts. The copyright date is 2010. Synopsis - Award-winning graphic artist Gareth Hinds masterfully reinterprets a story of heroism, adventure, and high action that has been told and retold for over 2,500 years. From the publisher: "With bold imagery and an ear tuned to the music of Homer's epic poem, Gareth Hinds reinterprets the ancient classic as it's never been told before. Fresh from his triumphs in the Trojan War, Odysseus, King of Ithaca, wants thing more than to return home to his family. Instead, he offends the sea god Poseidon, who dooms him to long years of shipwreck and wandering. In his efforts to get home, Odysseus must battle man-eating monsters, violent storms, and the supernatural seductions of sirens and sorceresses. He will need all his strength and cunning - and a little help from Mount Olympus - to make his way home once more and seize back his kingdom from the scheming suitors who seek to wed his queen and usurp his throne." Illustrated in color. Condition Details - The book is in very good plus condition; it has a tight binding and no marks, tears, turned down page corners or writing.
