The Odyssey

Brilliance! The opening with Telemachus is great mystery to what happened to Odysseus. The middle of what happened to Odysseus as flashbacks while he's on his travels to Ithaca is brilliant writing. The ending of dealing with the suitors is great and very familiar of the Iliad. Overall the characters of Odysseus, Telemachus, Penelope and Athena were very well written and acts as a superb sequel to the Iliad. I cannot be happier I read this book.
