I discovered I Am Legend last spring when I reviewed it for
my SFFAudio site along with Matheson's The Shrinking Man
(also pretty noir):

Its an amazing novel in no small part because like the movie
Chinatown it has a killer ending.
As for Homer and the Iliad, its a mistake to judge it based
on modern storytelling techniques, I think it works extremely
well on its own. Its one of my favorite stories.
