After ten years of war the Greeks have finally conquered Troy and are ready to sail home. Their actions following the victory, however, have angered Neptune and Minerva. And Odysseus (Ulysses), Eurylochus, and Elpenor are about to learn that angry gods and goddesses can turn a brief cruise across the Mediterranean into a long adventure as they wander through unknown lands filled with strange fruit, cannibals, and monsters.
Written for novice and intermediate Latin readers, Errores Longi Ulixis, Pars I (Fabulae Epicae, Vol. I) is based on Homer's epic poem about Odysseus and his long journey home from Troy.
