The Iliad – Homer for Fun 

Outside the city gates of Troy a bloody battle has been going on for many years

between the Greeks and Trojans. Achilles, who is furious about being betrayed by his

companion, Agamemnon, is the undisputed hero of the Greeks whilst the valiant

leader of the Trojan troops is Hector.

Amidst romantic intrigues, hunger for revenge and squabbles between the gods, the

Iliad by Homer gives an account of this legendary war, the end of which is revealed

in the Odyssey with the episode of the Trojan horse.

The action-packed adventures in this ancient legend have thrilled and fascinated

readers of all ages for centuries.
