Representaion In Pursuance Of Books Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes (Percy Jackson and the Olympians #companion book)
Who cut off Medusa's head? Who was raised by a she-bear? Who tamed Pegasus? It takes a demigod to know, and Percy Jackson can fill you in on the all the daring deeds of Perseus, Atalanta, Bellerophon, and the rest of the major Greek heroes. Told in the funny, irreverent style readers have come to expect from Percy, ( I've had some bad experiences in my time, but the heroes I'm going to tell you about were the original old school hard luck cases. They boldly screwed up where no one had screwed up before. . .) and enhanced with vibrant artwork by Caldecott Honoree John Rocco, this story collection will become the new must-have classic for Rick Riordan's legions of devoted fans--and for anyone who needs a hero. So get your flaming spear. Put on your lion skin cape. Polish your shield and make sure you've got arrows in your quiver. We're going back about four thousand years to decapitate monsters, save some kingdoms, shoot a few gods in the butt, raid the Underworld, and steal loot from evil people. Then, for dessert, we'll die painful tragic deaths. Ready? Sweet. Let's do this.Rating Based On Books Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes (Percy Jackson and the Olympians #companion book)

Reading this took me a while but now I've done it and it was awesome. I personally loved the Greek Gods more but it's because it had more weird and intriguing stuff going on because, well, it focused on the gods. Percy's narrative was great once again, I got a good laugh of all the mentions of modern stuff thrown into the myths. Orpheus playing "Shake It Off" and the gods getting confused of the time period etc. Hilarious! I really liked Percy's mentions of his friends. Annabeth seems to beNovember 10, 2014YES!That's what we want!PERCY'S POV!!!!!! :D
I would give this book a hundred shining stars if I could!Informative and funny as always.A great introduction to Greek Heroes that appeals to every modern reader.A full review to come.
THE GREEK GODS ARE ALIVE AND KICKING and now it's heroes turnthis book talks about 12 great heroes Perseus son of ZeusPsyche -mortal (sin of beauty), she is my favoritePhaethon- son of HeliosOtrera-the founder of the Amazon nationDeadalus- a skillful craftsman and artistTheseusAtlantaBellerophonCyreneOrpheus- great poet and musicianHarcules- the boy with 12 laborsJason- famous for his quest to bring the golden fleece*Cupid -son of Aphrodite-he wasn't one of the 12 heroes but he has bewitched me
Here's my peace offering... because as much as I love Uncle Rick and Percy, I just have to stop reading this one. Most of the stories in this book has already been read by yours truly in another book. I love Percy's humor and all that but I just find it boring to read a story in which I know the ending.Highly recommended to those pipsqueaks who haven't read Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes yet.
This book was so freaking good!! I was a bit dubious going into it considering I don't know a huge amount of Greek heroes, but the stories were told in such a funny and engaging way that it didn't really matter that I didn't know the heroes. It was literally "laugh out loud" funny. It was also really educational, and the humour just made it fun to learn. Obviously it's a middle grade series, so Riordan uses a lot of modern references to keep the intended audience interested, such as saying that
Some legends say that Heras breast milk sprayed across the sky und created the Milky Way. I dont know. That seems like a whole lot of solar systems from just one squirt. Its breaking my heart to give only two stars to this book.I love Percy Jackson, I Percy Jacksons Greek Gods are one of my favorite books and I am a big fan Rick Riordan because he makes me laugh everytime I read his books BUT Greek Heroes were so boring. I put the book down like three times and rather read another book than
