📘 The Odd-yssey of Odysseus: How to Spend 20 Years Getting Home Without Asking for Directions
by Homer Sapien

Ever thought your commute was bad? Try being Odysseus — war hero, ship captain, part-time cyclops stabber, and full-time expert in "taking the scenic route." In this epic (and epically avoidable) detour, Odysseus proves that with a little hubris, a dash of divine wrath, and absolutely zero interest in Google Maps, you too can turn a two-week journey into a two-decade disaster.

Join our navigationally-challenged protagonist as he offends gods, outwits monsters, and redefines the phrase "I'm on my way home" — all while his long-suffering wife Penelope weaves, waits, and probably wonders if he just didn't like being married.

From the genius mind of Homer Sapien — the literary equivalent of a bard with a Wi-Fi signal — comes the adventure of a lifetime, filled with sea monsters, seductive sorceresses, and more poor decision-making than your last group vacation. It's a tale so timeless, you'll forget it's been retold for 3,000 years.

Why read this book?

  • Learn what not to do when angering a sea god.
  • Feel better about your own procrastination habits.
  • Discover the original king of gaslighting ("I was coming back, honey!").
  • Fall in love with Homer Sapien's other works, like The Iliad: Bro Code Violations in Bronze Armor and Penelope's Guide to Dating While Widowed But Not Really.
  • So buckle up your sandals, dodge a few sirens, and prepare to be entertained. Odysseus may not have known where he was going, but Homer Sapien knows exactly how to get you hooked.
