If you want to know what to expect, examine Troy, the third book in the series, for style and tone. If you find Troy to "simply" be a retelling, The Odyssey will likely be classified as such. However, take as example that SF's take on the Iliad (Troy) does not start /in medias res/ as the versions attributed to Homer do. SF seems to attempt accessibility, consistency, and historical linearity to his account, so I expect much of the same from SF's The Odyssey.(less)
