The Iliad and the Odyssey by Marcia Williams

The Iliad and the Odyssey by Marcia Williams

Thrilling comic-strip action, with monsters, mighty heroes and even mightier gods and goddesses.

Likely to amuse and even absorb children for a good while.. Has a kind of Where's Wally?-ish delight in visual minutiae. * The Times Educational Supplement *
Elegant, intelligent, funny, dramatic and totally absorbing; the perfect start to an early familiarity with Homer. * The Guardian *
Brings clarity and humour to these ancient myths... Surely the most entertaining way to explore ancient history. * Junior Education *
Gareth Hinds brings The Odyssey to life in a masterful blend of art and storytelling. Vivid and exciting, this graphic novel is a worthy new interpretation of Homer's epic. * Rick Riordan, author of Percy Jackson and the Olympians series *
“[…] this gutsy, electrifying retelling of both epics… will please both the finicky Homeric scholars and children encountering the full stories for the first time.” * TLS *

Marcia Williams worked as a nursery teacher before beginning a successful career as an award-winning author and illustrator. With her distinctive cartoon-strip style, she has now illustrated and retold many literary classics for children, including Greek Myths and Mr William Shakespeare's Plays.
