The Iliad

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Neil Packer. In this companion volume to Cross's retelling of The Odyssey, the language is clear and easy to read, if a little over-adorned with exclamation marks. A handsome book design, eye-catching illustrations, and a clean typeface add to the clarity and accessibility. Although any sense of Homer's original poetry is lost, this may be a good choice for uninitiated readers.
