Greek & Roman Editorial Review

Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes is a must-read book for any Percy Jackson fan or a fan of Greek mythology. This companion book provides background details for many of the characters that are referenced in the novels. The book is narrated by Percy Jackson, and it tells the stories behind the stories. The book is filled with full-page pictures scattered throughout, and there are random funny quotes from the text positioned and blown up, which seemed unnecessary. The book is a neat way to learn more about Greek mythology than just what the series has been tossing out.
