Odyssey 2034 by SM Smyth

The war is over. The world is broken. And one man is coming home. In a ruined future where rogue AIs rule as cold, calculating gods and water is worth more than gold, Odysseus has survived eleven years of exile on a lonely rock guarded by a lonely mind. Released at last, he must cross a sea that hates him to reach the wife and son he left behind. But Ithaca is no longer his. A ruthless band of suitors has taken his house, his water, and his family. His son Telemachus is on his own dangerous journey to find the truth. His wife Penelope weaves one final desperate trick to hold them at bay. A gripping, mythic reimagining of Homer’s Odyssey set in a haunting post-apocalyptic world of shattered technology and fragile hope. Odyssey 2034 is a powerful story of homecoming, cunning, loyalty, and the brutal cost of survival. Perfect for fans of Station Eleven, The Road, Madeline Miller’s Circe, and literary science fiction.
