4.5

As engaging as Riordan's other books, but instead of ancient myths, based on the Jules Verne canon, specifically 20,000 Leagues under the sea.  What if Captain Nemo's creations weren't fictitious?  Makes sense even if you haven't read Verne.  Great adventure story. Violence levels OK for MS readers.  Jupiter, the baking orangutan is a fantastic creation.  He adores Mary Berry from Bake Off and creates gourmet food with mostly seaweed proteins.
