Bellerophon: Son of Poseidon by Cathleen Townsend
4.0
Gods. Love. Battles. Friendship. And Pegasus! I'm only sometimes a fan of Greek mythology, and I'm rarely a fan of battle scenes, but this book has a little bit of something for everybody.
The scheming gods are portrayed excellently. Lero himself is the typical almost-too-good-to-be-true hero, but through his unrelenting goodness he makes a series of loyal friends. The whole cast of characters is entertaining, and the antagonists are perfectly frustrating. I personally tend to skim the battle scenes and go straight for the drama!
I don't remember if I picked this up on sale or free through the author's email list, but either way, it's worth it for a bit of historical/mythological light reading!
