Lucky bastard. Read many blockbusters before they released?

Recently read "Claws that Catch" which won't be available until November. It's one of the Looking Glass series I mentioned. One of the things that makes me laugh about that series is they find this alien space drive and turn a ballistic submarine into a spaceship in one of the earlier books (Vorpal Blade). Also the names of some of the books made think they were familiar somehow. This latest book finally revealed what. The books were "Through the Looking Glass", "Vorpal Blade", "Manxome Foe" and "Claws That Catch". Bar the first one (which was originally meant to be a solo book) the names are taken from a famous poem.

Same here, Neo. I always found Odysseus more entertaining than the whole Trojan Horse spectacle. The archery contest is what I really enjoy considering Odysseus comes back in total secrecy and slaughters the bastard usurpers.

It's been a while since I read it but wasn't the suitors to his wife trying to string Odysseus's bow and couldn't yet along comes this tramp and does... and the tramp is Odysseus himself who then starts shooting the suitors? My memory is probably fibbing to me as usual.
