Odysseus Rising

Audible Originals presents Odysseus Rising, the greatest story ever told reimagined by our finest living sci-fi author, read by Andy Serkis.

“If we fail, it is my failure. If they must blame, let them blame me.”

After a decade of war, Ilium is reduced to a ruined world of ashes…

The Ithaca, a ship besieged by oligarchs and parasites, resolutely awaits the return of their Captain.

Carrying the weight of duty and the dead, Odysseus begins the long journey home, flying in the face of the Gods.

But the Gods will not be defied.

If Odysseus is doomed to never reach the safe harbour of his people, he must find a way to bring the Ithaca to him. And so his real journey begins, not through space, but deep into time itself.

From the award-winning author of Children of Time, Adrian Tchaikovsky blends his masterful weave of storytelling with groundbreaking sound design to deliver an interstellar re-telling of Homer’s epic tale.

For fans of Andy Weir, Dennis E Taylor and Cixin Liu, delivered to you in 3D Dolby Atmos, this is The Odyssey as you have never heard it before.
