“This story takes you on a breathtaking journey that will bring you to your feet in a standing ovation! The story of love, betrayal, courage, honor and more is timeless.” Meg

“The Odyssey is a touching story of faith, loyalty, and the importance of family. Homer does an amazing job spinning a tale that is utterly riveting. It is a book you can read again and again without ever getting tired of the wonderfully moving prose. The Odyssey will capture your mind and emotions, and you won't want to put it down. A great adventure” Tracy
