The World of Odysseus is a concise and penetrating account of the society that gave birth to the Iliad and the Odyssey--a book that provides a vivid picture of the Greek Dark Ages, its men and women, works and days, morals and values. Long celebrated as a pathbreaking achievement in the social history of the ancient world, M.I. Finley's brilliant study remains, as classicist Bernard Knox notes in his introduction to this new edition, "as indispensable to the professional as it is accessible to the general reader"--a fundamental companion for students of Homer and Homeric Greece.

“I will not let others decide for me what my duty as a woman should be. Whether it be to rule a country, raise a child or slaughter my enemies, I will decide what my own fate is.” Themis, Titan of Divine Justice Following the events of The Hunters of Artemis, Maximus and his friends find themselves working as agents for the underworld underneath the enigmatic god, Don Hades. While this line of work has no shortage of danger, their latest mission might be a bit more than they bargained for. They are ordered by the underworld to the dreaded Aeaea Island, where neither gods nor laws hold any power. For the lawless Island is under the rule of Circe, the dreaded ‘Ever-burning Witch’. Elsewhere, Maximus has garnered the attention of Olympus and they have sent their greatest huntsman to find him: Apollo, the Sun God.
