Nice easy read... enjoyable characters and plot line and I will read the entire series, but I never got completely absorbed by it. Unlike the Harry Potter series, once you finish the book, it's easy to forget about it.
Hopefully, this book will encourage readers to investigate Greek and other mythologies in their original ( well closer anyway) form. So much of western culture, not to mention our languages, derives from ancient Greece and Rome, that not so long ago the study of the classical age was the foundation of education. Movies and television have converted so many mythical characters to cartoon caricatures.
