Gareth Hinds is a critically acclaimed author-illustrator who adapts classic stories into graphic novels, such as The Iliad, The Odyssey, Beowulf, and more.

Pages from The Odyssey

With their engaging visual style and easily parsed storylines — which hew close to the original material but use more modern character dialogue in place of ancient narrative voice — each of these reinterpretations is a fantastic way to introduce older kids/preteens to the material without boring them to death.

Pages from The Iliad

You can find all his works on Amazon, where the Kindle versions generally run for $7–$9 a pop. However, I personally recommend picking up the paperback editions to get that tactile graphic novel reading experience.
