Before I start my annual PJO summer reread, I decided to visit this (sort of) reference book. These are the classic myths of the Greek gods as told by Percy Jackson. His hilarious and sarcastic storytelling really made the stories come alive! I just absolutely love that Rick chose Percy as the narrator. Although, the best part about this book is the exquisite drawings by John Rocco. I cannot give this man enough praise for his artistry– absolutely incredible. If you’re looking for an entertaining read to brush up on your Greek mythology knowledge, this book is for you!
