I definitely enjoyed this book as I did many of Mr. Evslin's other works. He always managed to put an interesting spin on these characters and give them stories. In this one, the story of Odysseus is touched upon as well as the tragic tale of Polyphemus. Overall definitely an enjoyable part of the Evelin mythology collection.
