Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey are unquestionably two of the greatest epic masterpieces in Western literature. Though more than 2,700 years old, their stories of brave heroics, capricious gods, and towering human emotions are vividly timeless. The Iliad can justly be called the world’s greatest war epic. The terrible and long-drawn-out siege of Troy remains one of the classic campaigns.

Tammy Jones takes on a new way of sharing the precious gems of knowledge and morals she has gathered along the way. Jones lets her poetic spirit flow freely as you get a glimpse of her journey. Journeys can be tiresome, especially if they're not our own, but journeys can also inspire and yield a wonderful sense of fulfillment.
