![]() ![]() My Review: First of all, I will literally read any book with Amalia Carosella’s name on it. Six authors bring to life the epic tale of The Odyssey seen through the eyes of its shattered victims-the monsters, witches, lovers, and warriors whose lives were upended by the antics of the “man of many faces.” You may never look upon this timeless epic-and its iconic ancient hero-in quite the same way again. These are their stories…Ī beleaguered queen’s gambit for maintaining power unravels as a son plots vengeance.Ī tormented siren battles a goddess’s curse and the forces of nature to survive.Īn exiled sorceress defies a lustful captain and his greedy crew.Ī blinded shepherd swears revenge on the pirate-king who mutilated him.Ī beautiful empress binds a shipwrecked sailor to servitude, only to wonder who is serving whom.Ī young suitor dreams of love while a returned king conceives a savage retribution. Some prayed for his return, others, for his destruction. Lovers and enemies, witches and monsters–no one who tangled with Odysseus emerged unscathed. ![]() Odysseus, infamous trickster of Troy, vaunted hero of the Greeks, left behind a wake of chaos and despair during his decade long journey home to Ithaca. By David Blixt, Amalia Carosella, Libbie Hawker, Scott Oden, Vicky Alvear Shecter, and Russell Whitfield ![]()
