Product description

“If you like horror shows, bloodbaths, lying, stealing, backstabbing and cannibalism, then read on…”

Who could tell the true stories of the gods and goddesses of Olympus better than modern-day demigod Percy Jackson?

In this action-packed tour of Greek mythology, Percy gives his hilarious personal views on the feuds, fights and love affairs of the Olympians.

Want to know how Zeus came to be top god? How many times Kronos ate one of his own kids? How Athena literally burst out of another god’s head?

It’s all here in black and white…

Featuring an exclusive bonus chapter from The Blood of Olympus, the fifth and final book in the Heroes of Olympus series!

Rick Riordan has now sold an incredible 55 million copies of his books worldwide!

Rick Riordan

Rick Riordan is a teacher and a writer, and has won many awards for his mystery novels for adults. He says that the idea for Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief first came to him while he was teaching Greek mythology at middle school in San Francisco. But rumour has it that Camp Half Blood actually exists, and Rick spends his summers there recording the adventures of young demigods. Some believe that, to avoid a mass panic among the mortal population, he was forced to swear on the River Styx to present Percy Jackson’s story as fiction. Rick lives in Texas (apart from his summers on Half Blood Hill) with his wife and two sons.

This book is all about the greek gods : how they came to life, how they defeated the titans,where did it all start and so much more. If you are looking for the story of the series it’s not there. If you have not started reading the percy jackson series:(the lightening thief,the sea of monsters,he titan’s curse,battle of labyrinth and the last olyampian) and have no clue about the greek gods i reccomend you to read this first and even if you are not going to read the percy jackson series this will tell you alot about the greek mythology. Overall i liked this book. Kids can read it though with supervision as there are some elements which aren’t appropriate for lil kids…
