And while Odysseus struggles to return to Ithaca, his wife, Penelope, fights a different kind of battle as her palace is invaded by forceful, greedy men who tell her that Odysseus is dead and she must choose a new husband. Will Odysseus reach her in time? Homer's epic, age-old story is powerfully told by Carnegie Medalist Gillian Cross and stunningly illustrated by Neil Packer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGillian Cross\u003c\/b\u003e is the Carnegie Medal-winning author of \u003ci\u003eWolf\u003c\/i\u003e.
