Throughout The Odyssey, the narrator uses first person, and 3rd person omniscient. He writes as Odysseus, and as though from a god’s point of view, witnessing and experiencing everything that takes place in the story.

The gods play a major role in this epic. Athena is Odysseus' aid, Poseidon is his villain, and Zeus... well, he doesn't want to get involved.
In The Odyssey, much of the action takes place in the Mediterranean Sea, on various islands. However, the hero also travels to the underworld in search of the prophet Tiresias.
