“Gareth Hinds brings Odissi into life in an excellent mixture of art and storytelling. Vivid and exciting, this is a worthy new interpretation of graphic novel Homer’s epic.” – Author of Rick Rordon, The Persy Jackson and the Olympian series
With his victory in the Trojan War, the fresh, King Odisius of Ethaka, does not want anything other than returning home to his family. Instead, he humiliates the sea god, Posidon, who does and wandering him for years of vessels. Odicius will need all his strength and clever, struggling with the man-fought monsters, violent storms and supernatural temptations of siren and sorceress-and to make a little help from Mount Olympus and to confiscate their kingdom from those skimmers who want to find their queen and their hostility. Award winning graphic artist Gareth Hinds has told for more than 2,500 years and a story of high action has been told the story of valor, adventure, and high action-although it is never like this.
