WHEN GODS TURN VENGEFUL, ONLY THE BRAVE CAN DEFY FATE AND FIND THEIR WAY HOME.

Discover the stunning conclusion to Stephen Fry's internationally bestselling Greek myths series. Relatable and full of humour, "Odyssey" brings this four-book sequence satisfyingly to a close.

Outstandingly entertaining quartet of books... Fry breathes contemporary relevance into these ancient tales.

"Odyssey" completes his Greek Myths series in marvellous fashion. Fry, a born storyteller, succeeds again in making the ancient stories accessible.

After the fall of Troy, wily Odysseus, King of Ithaca, sails for home to reunite with his steadfast queen, Penelope. However, the angry gods curse him to wander the seas for ten long years. Tormented by giants and monsters, and tempted by witches and goddesses, Odysseus battles to draw ever closer to home.

Awaiting him is Penelope, who defies reports of his death. But this queen endures her own tormentors – an army of young suitors eager to claim her hand and the throne.

Praise for Stephen Fry's Greek Myths series: Fry is at his story-telling best... the gods will be pleased. Brilliant... all hail Stephen Fry. A head-spinning marathon of legends. A rollicking good read. An Olympian feat. The gods seem to be smiling on Fry - his myths are definitely a hit.
