Summary |
"When legendary warrior Odysseus sets off from the city of Troy to his home on Ithaca, little does he suspect the terrifying dangers that stand in his way. Man-eating giants, a one-eyed ogre and a six-headed serpent lie in wait--not to mention sinister sirens, blood-chilling ghosts and a wicked enchantress. The fantastic thrills come thick and fast in this graphic version of the epic Greek legend"-- Back cover. |
