The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller

The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller is definitely and adult book. There are a few highly romantic scenes. What I appreciate is that it's all nuanced but still you know what is happening. One of my high school students read it on his own and liked it. So I would say perfect for public library and private reading but not for high school libraries. Having said that, it is a good book and well written and follows the Achilles myth very well. It is good literature geared more for adults. The audiobook is also very good.

The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel by Gareth Hinds , Homer

The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel by Gareth Hinds, Homer I liked this depiction of the Greek story of a mighty warrior trying to get back home. Any nudity is blurred. A bit of blood from battle scene but it all works. A good book to add to any high school library. Helpful when teaching 9th grade English.

The Labors of Hercules Beal by Gary D. Schmidt

The Labors of Hercules Beal is an excellent book that should be in all middle school libraries. Gary D. Schmidt is an excellent story crafter. The story is told in Hercules' perspective. He reltates to the Demigod Hercules. He becomes part of the community as they all work together to solve dangerous and difficult problems. An excellent read/audiobook.

Brilliant book that blends characters from Greek mythology, World War I and 4 very interesting mortals.  Go back in time to Europe and read history in fresh eyes.  It's a love story but so much more.  The characters grow and find their voices.  The audio book is also very good.  And this would be fine for high school students to read as well.
