Odysseys

Very enjoyable story and cast!! I can’t believe I finished the book in one day, but I couldn’t quit listening.

Very entertaining

I loved the different voices, except Odyseus, a bit whiny for my taste, and my only other critiscm is that it was not complete, as far as I can tell from other versions, there seems to be some things left out and others changed.

A book for everyone

Awesome book from being to the end. A book that everyone should have in their collection, thank you, job well done!!
