I remember liking the first book in this series but this one felt erratic. I thought the "hot potato" tie in was interesting.

This went in a bit of a different direction from the first book, which at first I wasn't too sure about but in the end I think it worked.

I used to be obsessed with Greek mythology, and would sometimes think, "What if the Greeks were right, and everything is run by gods who are barely different than people?" This book takes it to the next logical level: if the gods of mythology really exist, how the hell would they cope in today's world?

Update: Second time around is as good as the first.
