Yeah, it's really well written, and the story is pretty interesting...but it uses that kind of writing that Shakespeare uses and I can't really understand.  :P

One of the better ancient books written out there. Written by Homer, of course. Nobody knows exactly who Homer was. Great story, full of action, adventure, sex (yes, they knew how to get it on in ancient times), you name it. Love it.

yea, I read that and the Iliad. Its a very "heavy" sort of book, meaning hard to understand and get in to. If you're into the epic sort of greek prose thing, you'll like it.
