What it is
WHEN GODS TURN VENGEFUL, ONLY THE BRAVE CAN DEFY FATE AND FIND THEIR WAY HOME
Discover Stephen Fry's epic re-telling of the Odyssey for the 21st century After the fall of Troy, wily Odysseus, King of Ithaca, sails for home and his steadfast queen Penelope. However, the angry gods curse him to wander the seas for ten long years. Tormented by giants and monsters, tempted by witches and goddesses, Odysseus battles to draw ever closer to home. Awaiting him is Penelope, defying reports of his death. But this queen endures her own tormentors – an army of young suitors eager to claim her hand and the throne . . . 'Relatable and full of humour . . . Odyssey brings [the] four-book sequence satisfyingly to a close' GUARDIAN 'Outstandingly entertaining quartet of books . . . Fry breathes contemporary relevance into these ancient tales' OBSERVER 'Odyssey completes his Greek Myths series in marvellous fashion. . . Fry, a born storyteller, succeeds again in making the ancient stories accessible' IRISH INDEPENDENT
