Discover Homer’s two great masterpieces, The Iliad and The Odyssey, together in a two-volume collection that takes you from the battlefields of Troy to Odysseus’ palace in Ithaca. If you are looking for The Iliad and The Odyssey in an accessible modern edition, this two-book set is an ideal way to experience the complete world of Homer.

The Iliad recounts the final days of the Trojan War through the wrath of Achilles, exploring timeless themes of honour, friendship, loss, vengeance and reconciliation. The Odyssey continues the story after the fall of Troy, following Odysseus on his ten-year journey home—a voyage filled with gods, mythical creatures, dangers and trials that ultimately becomes a journey of self-discovery and return.

Together, the two Homeric epics stand at the foundation of Western literature and rank among the greatest achievements of the human imagination. They are far more than stories of heroes and war: they are works that explore human nature, choice and responsibility, love, loyalty, and the search for meaning.

What Makes This New Edition Different?

This new edition from KAKTOS Publications presents The Iliad and The Odyssey in Modern Greek prose, without the original Ancient Greek text, allowing you to read both epics naturally and with ease. The language is vivid and accessible while preserving the character and power of Homer, and the narrative unfolds with the pace and immediacy of a compelling novel.

The translation is by Panagiotis Giannakopoulos, with text editing by Rania Tziampiri and specialist editorial review by the KAKTOS Philological Team, ensuring an edition of high philological quality that is also a pleasure to read.
