Following a close escape from the land of the Lotus-Eaters, Odysseus and her crew encounter a new foe, this time in the form of the one-eyed Cyclops, Polyphemus.
Tensions are brewing between Odysseus and her crewmates, but when they find themselves trapped in the mysterious mansion of the Cyclops, they all must join forces to stay alive.
