Brought to you by Penguin.

This Penguin Classic is performed by Steve John Shepherd, whose theatre credits include Much Ado About Nothing at the Globe, The Good Canary directed by John Malkovich, Bomber's Moon and Piaf. His TV and film credits range from the iconic This Life to Silent Witness and Eastenders. This definitive recording includes an introduction by E V Rieu.

One of the foremost achievements in Western literature, Homer's Iliad tells the story of the darkest episode in the Trojan War. At its centre is Achilles, the greatest warrior-champion of the Greeks, and his refusal to fight after being humiliated by his leader Agamemnon. But when the Trojan Hector kills Achilles' close friend Patroclus, he storms back into battle to take revenge - although knowing this will ensure his own early death. Interwoven with this tragic sequence of events are powerfully moving descriptions of the ebb and flow of battle, of the domestic world inside Troy's besieged city of Ilium, and of the conflicts between the Gods on Olympus as they argue over the fate of mortals.

The Iliad was meant to be spoken, so listen to it ~ E. Musk. Thus narrated version brings all the ancient characters to life. It is amazing that such a beautiful epic story story of battle, violence and victory was written 2,800 years ago.

It was a great retelling of my favorite epic. I enjoyed the notes at the end, it was nice to have the academic analysis at the end of the story...which is a story I have always watched in my head. Also, the narrator has a fantastic voice for telling this story.

wonderful!

I didn't follow as well as I should have during the first few hours. I had to stop and read about much of the context that I didn't understand.

by the second half of the narrative, I was hooked. The action and violence was surprising, but the development of the characters was clear and I connected to their plight.

I'm happy that I listened. Now on to the Odyssey and then the Aneid.

This book is worthy of the classic title. I’ve rarely enjoyed a school book this much.

Wonderful.

Excellent

no spoilers here, not that you can with a work so widely known and cherished. it's raw, its alive, it's telling of all that's in the heavens for man above between and below. no wonder it's required reading in uni. here, we've inspired and engaging narration, hurling you through the hallowed annals of time. landing as it were on the most celebrated battlefield of antiquity. we are so blessed that the Greeks took literature so seriously. present day society would be at an utter loss without these moments in myth and history preserved to help guide us. an entertaining and engrossing look into man's wrestling with greater will than his own, it's consequences and conclusion. that you should come to love this work, is inevitable even at half a wit......

A must listen. The reader was fantastic. I can’t imagine reading the Illiad without the narrators voice in my head

Classic of classics

A must-read for the masculine male. Though not word for word the monologues and dictation for the rituals are intact. a must-read for the Olympian theologian

I grew up with the Robert Fagles translation (the best version). This translation is the closest one I have heard on audible to the Fagles version. And it's unabridged (the Fagles version on audible is abridged). If you like Fagles and you want The Iliad unabridged then this is the one to get.

Good translation close to Fagles
