Trapped in the lair of a monster. Outnumbered by raw, brute force. Saved only by the power of the mind.
After surviving the devastation of Troy and the perils of Ismarus, Odysseus and his crew land on the mysterious island of the Cyclopes. What begins as a search for provisions quickly spirals into a fight for sheer survival when they are trapped inside the dark cave of Polyphemus—a towering, man-eating giant who fears neither gods nor men.
With a massive boulder sealing the entrance and his men falling prey to the Cyclops’s merciless appetite, Odysseus faces his most brutal trial yet. Sword and shield are useless against such colossal strength. To escape, the King of Ithaca must rely on his sharpest weapon: his cunning.
