Publisher Description
The first of Homer's great epic poems, the Iliad portrays the final days of the Trojan war. The Iliad has stood the test of time and is still one of (it not the) best depictions of ancient warfare. It is an essential precursor to the infamous journey of Odysseus.
Translated by Stanley Lombardo. Introduction by Susan Sarandon.

just fine
Susan Sarandon just reads intro and is fine; they are good short summaries of each book. Lombardo reads the rest and is inoffensive. Music is intermittent, like they couldn't decide whether to include or not. As for the translation, it is sometimes a bit too colloquial or low for my taste.
