The Oddest Sea

Odysseus learns the hard way that one shouldn't anger Poseidon. Ten years after the fall of Troy, our hero is still unable to make it home where, unbeknownst to him, his wife is being courted by 108 suitors! Set sail up the trail with us and encounter gods and goddesses, a cyclops, a whirlpool, a sea­witch, and more in this humorous adaptation of the Greek classic that would please even Zeus himself.
