More than three thousand years ago, two armies faced each other in an epic battle that rewrote history and came to be known as the Trojan War. The Iliad, Homer’s legendary account of this nine-year ordeal, is considered the greatest war story of all time and one of the most important works of Western literature. This stunning graphic novel captures all the grim glory of Homer’s epic. Dynamic illustrations take readers directly to the plains of Troy, into the battle itself, and lay bare the complex emotions of the men, women, and gods whose struggles fueled the war and determined its outcome.

"This is a brilliant graphic novel to get a great start on an epic like Iliad. Its so beautifully illustrated and very nicely abridged. <br/><br/>After reading this, I felt like I watched a good and long show like <i>Game of Thrones</i>. I think the experience is tough to create in a medium like a graphic novel. <br/><br/>I recommend this if you are keen to get started on the classic texts of the West. This graphic novel is a good starting point before you immerse deep into this world. <br/><br/>I am eagerly looking for to reading the author's next book, The Odyssey."
