A wonderfully fun adventure

This book was recommended to me by the owner of a new and used book store she read it and was addicted! Well I have to say when I sat down and read this I was amazed I have always loved the myths about the Gods and Goddesses of Mount Olympus and all the heros and monsters and this book has all of them and more so if you love mythology or even just love a good adventure here you will not be disappointed! I could not put this book down and read it cover to cover you will not be disappointed

Excellent Read

This is an excellent book for any age. My 9 years old daughter, who loves to read, but was intimidated by big books just couldn't put it down. The author cleverly weaved Greek mythology into modern day and makes the story believable. This book has it all, magic, adventure, courage and valor. I highly recommend this book.

Great read for boys and others too

Like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson is fast action and magic, but set in the U.S. My son couldn't put it down. As a teacher, I can see using it in Junior High. It covers the Greek gods well, plus good vocab and U.S. Geography---all worked in without slowing down the story line. Awesome!

Great book.

Although it seemed to start out a bit slow, the book became a lot more better as I read through. A very interesting read, and highly reccommended.

Very clever author

I just finished reading this with my 12 year old niece and we had such fun. The author writes in a humorous tone, especially the chapter titles. Amy was studying Greek gods in school at the same time, so she figured out what the characters would do as we encountered them.

I just ordered the next two in the series.... can't wait!
