Reviews

The reader has to make forty choices throughout the book, with seventeen possible endings. It's like reading a new story every time! . . .I love getting to pretend to be a hero out of Greek mythology. This was an amazing, fun story and a great introduction to mythology!-- "Kids' Book Buzz/San Francisco Book Review"
Tweens get to role-play as a Greek god in these appealing, well-crafted works. Each book sets an introductory scene before leading to three or four of the myth's famous challenges. . . .There is an impressive amount of material in these small, attractive books. Highly recommended for middle school collections.-- "School Library Journal"
