Recently, I read a classic story called The Odyssey retold by Louie Stowell. This story is about a King called Odysseus who comes home from a seven year war against Troy. When Odysseus tries to return home with an army of men theres a storm and they find themselves lost and fighting against the wrath of cyclops, witches, Gods, flying sirens and sea monsters. While fighting the evil Gods and monsters, his kingdom is being taken over by greedy scroungers. However, he faces tragedy and his worried and scared that he will loose his kingdom forever. Odysseus needs to survive and plans how he will reclaim his kingdom.
I enjoyed the story very much because it was full of adventures and had a lot of interesting characters. The part I liked the best was when Odysseus fought the witch. There was a lot of good description. If you like fantasy and adventure stories, you would love this one.
