Ian,
It's a really nice looking blog, clearly your team has some nice design experience! Definite fan of the clean layout!
One thing you might want to look into is using a custom permalink structure, there are two that I'd typically use myself depending if you categorise posts or not, either:
/%category%/%postname%
or
/%postname%
This would change your post urls for example from
http://talesofbraveulysses.com/?p=313 to
http://talesofbraveulysses.com/bettany-hughes which search engines prefer and should help you get a few more visitors via Google etc.
To change this setting in WordPress just go to the Settings -> Permalinks page and choose Custom Structure.
Keep up the good work!
Regards,
Darryl
