I'm reading the OUP edition of The Iliad (translated by Fitzgerald), and I decided to order the OUP Odyssey, assuming it would be the same translation, but it's Shewring's prose translation. Should I read it or return it? And why aren't OUP consistent here?

Should I read that then and be consistent or just read the prose Shewring?

I haven't read Shewring but Fitzgerald is my favourite Homer translator. I did read a prose translation of the Iliad years ago (Rieu) and it was a fun enough read.
