I had heard a lot of good things about this book and admittedly I was quite late to the party. But I'm glad that I managed to nab myself a copy from the library to read. This book has definitely revived my love for Greek mythology. The story of Circe is really well written and I love how it encompasses other areas of Greek mythology like Odysseus and Prometheus. At times I did find my mind wandering as there were areas that didn't grab my attention as much as others but it was brought back quite swiftly. I will definitely be reading more of this author's works!

"The Odyssey” was first book I read with my Grampie at four-years-old and was my introduction to the mesmerizing tales of Roman and Greek Mythology. Not only is this book a classic, with plenty of recognizable tales, but truly a whimsical experience of triumph, love, and hardship."
