In a companion volume to his award-winning adaptation of The Odyssey, the incomparable graphic novelist Gareth Hinds masterfully adapts Homer's classic wartime epic.

More than three thousand years ago, two armies faced each other in an epic battle that rewrote history and came to be known as the Trojan War. The Iliad, Homer's legendary account of this nine-year ordeal, is considered the greatest war story of all time and one of the most important works of Western literature. In this stunning graphic novel adaptation -- a thoroughly researched and artfully rendered masterwork -- renowned illustrator Gareth Hinds captures all the grim glory of Homer's epic. Dynamic illustrations take readers directly to the plains of Troy, into the battle itself, and lay bare the complex emotions of the men, women, and gods whose struggles fueled the war and determined its outcome. This companion volume to Hinds's award-winning adaptation of The Odyssey features notes, maps, a cast of characters, and other tools to help readers understand all the action and drama of Homer's epic.

Perfect size for me!
Color: Black
I've had this bag for several months! It's in GREAT condition for the price that I got it for! I've had one maybe a couple stitches on the handle fray a little bit, but other than that it's holding up amazingly! Surprisingly it holds a lot, wallet, keys, small makeup bag, and a smaller bag for hair ties, pins, tampons and whatnot. It's very soft, the color doesn't fade! The material isn't hard leather, it's very maluable, making it fit wherever you put it, which is exactly what I was looking for. When this one eventually wears out, I'll 100% buy another one again because it's small and it matches every single one of my outfits!

Cute but cheaply made
Color: Black
I love this bag so much. However, I had to purchase twice because the first one broke due to the fabric on the inside catching on the zipper and when I tried to undo it, it ripped. The second bag still has problems with the zipper but it has stayed in good condition. The bag holds quite a lot and it’s really good. Overall I would say that bad is cheap but also lasts? Just be cautious of the zipper.

WORST PRODUCT I HAVE EVER BOUGHT- and I’m NOT picky.
Color: Black, Color: Black
DO NOT BUY. Genuinely the worst product I have ever bought. I’m not a picky person. But upon receiving this bag, I immediately felt iffy about the material of the bag. Then I opened it to get a whiff of a rancid fishy smell. As I’m not a picky person, and it was $20, I moved past these two immediate issues. My problem came on day 4 when the interior ripped. The material is so cheap it was not able to be sewn to be fixed. I was irritated, but was able to move on from even this. Day 6 of use was the final straw for me. The zipper got caught and completely stuck on the ripped material. While trying to wiggle it, the tab to pull the zipper came off. While again trying to get it open by hand, the zipper ripped completely open and part of the zipper track came off. This is THE MOST DISAPPOINTING ITEM I HAVE EVER BOUGHT. Absolutely DO NOT RECOMMEND. DO NOT GET THIS BAG. I don’t even want to give this one star.

SO MUCH SPACE AND IS SO CUTE
Color: Black, Color: Black
I LOVE this bag. To give you an idea, yeah duh it’s cute whatever. BUT let me tell you I brought this to an all day race event and fit my (large) wallet, 2 pairs of sunglasses, all of my lippies, AND NOT ONE BUT TWO FULL BOTTLES OF COKE!!! And it still zipped. Insane amount of space in this thing and it’s so cute too. 10/10 would recommend and I’m buying it in the khaki color too!
