I am enjoying the book. I’ve seen the movie in theaters three times. The book runs the story differently as far as when Odysseus travels, there is more dialogue with the Gods and goddesses, it gives more context. However the movie is just as spectacular, pulls the movie goer in and the characters capture one’s heart. The movie makes one feel for Odysseus and the trials he goes through.
