Liv reads Book I of Homer's Iliad, translated into prose by Samuel Butler. It begins in the middle of things... Late in the Trojan War, a priest arrives to ask the Greeks to return his daughter who they've taken captive.

This is not a standard narrative story episode, it's simply a bonus reading of Homer. For regular episodes look for any that don't have "Liv Reads..." in the title!
