Riordan, Rick. Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods. 2014. 336p. ISBN 978-1423183648. Available at FIC RIO on the library shelves.
When his editor first asks him to write a compendium on the Greek Gods, Percy Jackson hesitates. After all, as a demigod himself, he could catch a lot of flak from the Titans and the Olympians. But after thinking it over, he decides such a book would help mere mortals understand the relationships among the rulers of Olympia.
Told from Percy’s perspective, this book presents a concise history of the twelve Olympians, as well as Gaea and her children, the Titans. Each God and Goddess gets his or her own profile, including how they came about and what they have been up to since, all in the unmistakable voice of a teenager.
Beautifully illustrated, this volume is a must for lovers of the Percy Jackson series and anyone who wants a hilarious look at the lives of the Greek Gods.
