Overview
The gripping mythological saga The World’s Desire picks up The Odyssey where Homer left off. It is one of the first four of a series of re-found treasures that changed the landscape or boundaries of genre fiction, repackaged with stunning new cover designs. Odysseus returns home to find Ithaca plague-ridden and his beloved wife Penelope slain. The grieving Odysseus is visited in dreams by his former love, Helen of Troy, who shows him how to equip himself with the Bow of Eurytus. Helen beckons Odysseus to search for her in Egypt, where he encounters heroic figures, free from the restrictions of time and death. Neither murderous political games at the court of the Pharaoh, nor epic battles, nor even the Pharaoh’s wife’s temptations can make him stray from his course. In this, his last journey, Odysseus completes his lifelong search for beauty itself, in the person of the World’s Desire, Helen of Troy.
