The classic saga from ancient Greek poet Homer

Homer's incredible poetry has survived the centuries to become a landmark in classical literature. The Iliad, the first of Homer's epic poems, tells of the counsel of Nestor, Achilles' slaying of Hector, and the defeat of the Trojans by the Greeks. It vividly recalls the events of the Trojan War and the uncontrolled wrath of the Greek commander Achilles that led to so much destruction.

About the Author

Homer was probably born around 725BC on the Coast of Asia Minor, now the coast of Turkey, but then really a part of Greece. Homer was the first Greek writer whose work survives. Both works attributed to Homer--The Iliad and The Odyssey--are over ten thousand lines long in the original.
