Lombardo''s achievement is all the more striking when you consider the difficulties of his task. . . . [He] manages to be respectful of Homer''s dire spirit while providing on nearly every page some wonderfully fresh refashioning of his Greek. The result is a vivid and disarmingly hardbitten reworking of a great classic.\n Daniel Mendelsohn, The New York Times Book Review\n\n------------------------------\nW.
