    Summary: 
    Gillian Cross's fine retelling of Homer's epic story captures all the heroism and savagery of war and shows why the 'Iliad' has been called the first tragedy and the greatest literary achievement of Greek civilization. An illustrated adaptation of Homer's classic traces the rivalry between two powerful Greek leaders for the hand of a beautiful woman against the backdrop of the Trojan War.
