A collage of four mythical scenes, including a trident, a red eye, ships, and a purple creature, is overlaid with musical notes and the text "What I recommend reading if you like EPIC Epic The Musical" on a background of a boat on water under a cloudy sky.

The book cover for "The Odyssey" by Homer, featuring a man with a bow, is centered against an ocean backdrop. Text above and below reads "The Odyssey Homer" and "The story of Odysseus. A must read in general. Classic Literature."

The book cover for "The Song of Achilles" by Madeline Miller, featuring a golden helmet, is centered against an ocean backdrop. Text above and below reads "The Song of Achilles Madeline Miller" and describes the story as "Historical YA Romance."

I love Epic the musical and with its vitality it felt like a good second installment of musicals as books. I love Greek mythology and retellings so when I found out someone was making a musical about Odyssey I was so excited. I remember seeing him posting audition videos on Tiktok telling people to
