The Iliad and the Odyssey Boxed Set

I enjoyed this modern translation of both books. It spoke to me in ways that I could relate to. The footnotes also helped a great deal. The Illiad, especially, was enjoyable.

Beautiful and great quality! Excited delve back into Greek mythology. The print is small tho, so make sure to have your reading glasses!

My daughter asked for these. When we received them, I was very impressed by their quality. They are beautiful and will look nice on anyone's bookshelf.

The box has a cloth bound hardback feel, the actual naked hardbacks are a smooth paper feel, and they have a glued binding.The only “flaw” I’ve found with this set is that the box is slightly wider than you would expect so the book will slid in and out quite freely. Other than that these editions are beautiful and sturdy.

The books were great, as expected.

I'm only 80 pages deep, but this translation is nicely done for a novice as myself with Illiad. The introduction really helped me as I went on into the main book. I recommend reading the introduction first. Also, the books themselves are nicely made too. Look forward to the Odyssey next!

Got it for a family as a gift and she is proud of it. The digital stuff ...they got it...but don't be surprised when they ask for paper...hard bound...books.

Nice books and will look good on the bookshelf, but they are smaller in size than I thought they would be. Make sure you read the dimensions before you buy if you're looking for full-size books. It came well packed and no shipping issue with mine.
