Heroic Books for Fans of Greek Mythology
With the release of the brand-new Percy Jackson series on Disney+, Greek mythology is back in its golden age. To celebrate, we’ve selected some of our favourite books featuring all things Ancient Greece!
Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
Percy Jackson is having a bad week. His life has gone from totally normal to monsters-from-Greek-mythology-randomly-appearing kind of strange. Worse still, the king of the gods thinks Percy has stolen his all-powerful lightning bolt – and it seems making Zeus angry is a very bad idea.
Discover the story of Percy Jackson, half-boy, half-god – all hero.
Who Let the Gods Out? by Maz Evans
When Elliot wishes upon a star, he doesn’t expect a constellation to crash into a dungheap on his family farm. The star is Virgo. She thinks she’s perfect. Elliot doesn’t. And together they release Thanatos, evil Daemon of Death… epic fail.
This exciting, laugh-out-loud series is a must-read for all fans of Greek mythology.
