4.0

A book that is completely based on the Greek Gods existing in modern America. The main character, Percy, is a young boy, who has ADHD and a rather annoying step-dad. When he gets kicked out of another school, he finds himself meddled with a complicated situation.

The book is fun and entertaining with lots of on-going action. Unfortunately, I believe that the information on the Gods could be explained better, so that it can be educational to the youngins as it is a middle grade book.
