The Sorceress Who Turned Men Into Beasts – The Odyssey Book 10 (Plain English Audiobook)

The Odyssey is one of the oldest and most influential epic poems in Western literature. Attributed to Homer and composed in ancient Greek around the 8th century BC, the poem stands at the foundation of the Western storytelling tradition. Set in the aftermath of the Trojan War, The Odyssey follows the long and perilous journey of Odysseus, king of Ithaca, as he struggles to return home after ten years of war. Along the way he encounters shipwrecks, monsters, witches, divine intervention, and the temptation of immortality itself. Meanwhile, in Ithaca, his wife Penelope and son Telemachus endure growing danger as ruthless suitors consume the household and plot for the throne. Blending adventure, myth, psychological depth, and reflections on loyalty, identity, and homecoming, The Odyssey has shaped countless stories for nearly three thousand years. Its influence can be seen in epic fantasy, modern novels, film, and every hero’s journey that follows. Though its origins lie in the oral tradition of ancient Greece, The Odyssey remains one of the most enduring explorations of what it means to wander, to suffer, and ultimately, to return home. Book 10 Summary: After escaping the Cyclops, Odysseus receives a bag of winds from Aeolus, but his crew foolishly opens it and drives them back off course. Landing on the island of the sorceress Circe, his men are transformed into swine, yet with the help of Hermes, Odysseus resists her magic and forces her to restore them. He and his crew remain with Circe for a year before she instructs him that his next journey must lead to the land of the dead. ------------------------------------------------- Music: Wedding by Alex-Productions / alexproductionsmusic License: Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://audiolibrary.com.co/alex-prod...
