The Odyssey (5) - If you are in a hurry to complete your report, it will help you so. But don't forget to read the entire book as soon as you can. Surprisingly thorough (5) - The important details of every Book are explained and analyzed, not very much in-depth but deeply enough to give a basic understanding of what's going on, why, and how it might be interpreted. I had read the Odyssey twice in the past (and remembered almost nothing), so this was a great way to refresh my memory without having to read the epic for the third time for a course. It is not intended to replace reading the actual epic, but it does help make it more accessible to all. Good work. TURNED "ROCKET SCIENCE" to Reading Ease (5) - Homer's The Odyessey is a drudgery to read not to mention understand. This book took the pain and bordom of that and shortned it to a 1 hour (45 if your a fast reader) book that keeps all the details (for your reading pleasure) and explains the importance of each section in relations to High School which actually helps a ton. (pulled my grade on this from the usual B to A thanks to this book). Cliffnotes (5) - This is a great way to help you better understand the book. While it does not take the place of the book it is a really good learning tool, |
