The Odyssey is a classic for a reason, and not just because high schoolers are often forced to read it. The story is driven by Odysseus' goal of returning home, but in achieving that goal, he explores much of the Greek world. It has a lot of serious topics, but in a tone which makes it clear that you are supposed to see it as an adventure.
